Linear position sensor LWH

conductive plastic potentiometermetalabsolute

Potentiometric position transducer; pendular fixed slide bearing and decoupled wiper tap for stick-slip-free movement; long life span and high adjustement speed; easy to assemble via snap in and all side mountable clamps LWH transducers are designedfor the direct, absolutemeasurement of displacementor length in control regulationand measuring applications.High resolution (0.01 mm)combined with a stroke lengthof up to 900 mm permits theaccurate measurement of linear displacement.Rack and pinions or similardevices are not requiredbecause the design of thetransducers is such that theymay be integrated directly intothe mechanical system.Tight tolerances on theextruded body, combined witha special surface treatment,permit high operating speedsand reduced wear. A pivotingfront bearing overcomes“stickslip” operation even withsome angular or out-of-parallelmisalignment The Novotechnik design forconnections to the resistancetrack ensures the highest degree of reliability, even underharsh working conditions.The transducer has mountinggrooves on all four housingsurfaces. Thus the transducercan always be mounted in thepreferred orientation, with theresistance element directedupwards, independent of themounting surface.Difficult to reach overheadmounting is simplified by premounting the included clamps,then simply snap-mountingthe transducer into place.
