The absolute position transducer can be used directly in-cylinder and thus enables a compact and cost-effective position measurement. The sensor consists of a stainless steel flange welded to a pressure tight rod and can therefore be used in harsh environments. The magnetostrictive measuring technology offers excellent accuracy for measuring lengths up to 2000 mm. The passive ring-shaped position marker allows a mechanically decoupled measurement.
