Transducers employing the
NOVOSTRICTIVE® touchless
magnetostrictive measuring
process for direct, precise and
absolute measurement of linear
position in control, positioning
and measuring technology.
The measurement is accomplished
using a passive position
marker which can be
moved as a free-floating or
guided element.
Side coupling of the position
marker reduces the installation
envelope size, prevents
the pump effect of slide arms
and permits stroke lengths up
to 4500 mm. The non-contact
coupling version makes
installation even simpler, and
the wear-free operation means
unlimited mechanical life expectancy
and unlimited traverse
speed of the position marker.
The temperature coefficient of
the transducer is extremely
low thanks to the measuring
principle, design and selected
materials.
The high mechanical ruggedness
of the transducer combined
with the underlying measuring
technique mean that
the system is highly resistant
to shock and vibration. The
active sensing element is encased
in an aluminum housing
rated to IP 67. This makes the
transducer resistant to contamination,
dust, moisture and
oils.
Mounting is accomplished
using clamps that allow precise
mechanical adjustment.
A sophisticated ASIC in the
transducer provides for standard
absolute output signals.
The CAN protocol of these
transducers is compatible with
CiA Standard DS-301 Rev.
4.02 and standard device profile
DSP-406 Rev. 3.1
according to encoder class
C1. The position and velocity
of up to 2 position markers
are transmitted on the bus
using “Process Data Objects”
(PDO’s). Additionally, according
to standard freely programmable
cams are available
to signalize the passing of
certain positions.
Via CAN Interface the node-
ID, baud rate, transmission
mode, transmission cycle
time, slope and travel direction
and other parameters
be largely varied. The parameters
for configuration of the
sensor are sent by the CAN
controller in “Service Data
Objects” (SDO’s).
Node ID and data rate are
varied either in Layer Setting
Service (LSS; nach DSP 305
V1.1.2) or using SDO Object
0x2000. They are stored
non-volatile memory.
As a special feature, the sensor
offers the Autobaud function:
The Sensor is able to
detect the bit rate of the
network by “listening” to
communication of existing
members and to adjust his
rate accordingly.
Additional interfaces see separate
data sheets.
