Position indicator EP43RS

LCDpanel-mountcompact

Programmable position indicators with hollow shaft and serial connection, which is used for linear or angular measurements. It is easy to install for a fast, efficient and safe format changeover. The EP43 / EP46 are an evolution of mechanical indicators, with compatible dimensions and the same mounting system, for semi-automatic adjustment monitored by PLC on a vast range of machines and plants even in complex and heterogenous working conditions. Main features: • Compact and robust case made of anodized aluminum, stainless steel hollow shaft supported by ball-bearings. • The display has 7,5mm-high-digits, which allow excellent readability also from a distance. • 2 models: EP43RS with ø14 - ø12,7 (1/2”) hollow shaft; EP46RS with ø20 - ø19,05 (3/4”) - ø25hollow shaft. • 3 installation possibilities: version A for horizontal shafts with optimal visibility when positioned at a height between 50cm and 120cm; version B1 for vertical shafts with optimal visibility between 50cm and 150cm; version B2 for vertical shafts with optimal visibility above 170cm Main functions: ￭ Display LCD with backlight and two rows: the first row shows the current position and the second row shows the target position. The target value is sent to the unit via a s erial interface from the PLC, allowing manual format changeover by the operator using a handwheel. ￭ 2 LEDs, 1 green and 1 red, guide the operator until the correct position has been reached ￭ All parameters are freely programmable via the integrated RS485 interface for networking with the PLC or a remote supervision system.
