Product catalog summary
Specifications:
The 955D BRIK Gen III operates with an input voltage range of 13.5 to 30 VDC and a maximum current draw of 2.5 Watts. It offers output control in pulse, variable pulse, and stop/start formats, with resolution and update rates dependent on the controller. The device maintains high precision with a linearity of +/- 0.05% of stroke and repeatability of +/- 0.006% of full stroke. It functions effectively within a temperature range of -20° to 70°C and supports span lengths from 5” to 180”. The enclosure is rated IP67, with an optional IP68 rating.

Product Description:
The 955D Digital BRIK Gen III is a non-contact, linear displacement transducer utilizing magnetostrictive technology for accurate position sensing. It features auto-tuning capabilities to adjust signal strength based on magnet type. The device is housed in an anodized aluminum extrusion and is compatible with PLC interface cards. Diagnostic LEDs indicate operational status, with green for normal operation, yellow for no interrogation signal, and red for magnet absence or misplacement.

Applications:
This transducer is suitable for applications requiring continuous feedback, such as presses, blow molding, injection molding, extrusion, roll positioning, and dancer control. It serves as a cost-effective alternative to limit switches, proximity sensors, linear potentiometers, and LVDTs.

Accessories:
Available accessories include various magnets, mounting feet, and cables with different lengths and connector types.

Part Numbering:
The part numbering system allows customization of output type, options for wet environments, interrogation mode, and stroke length, which can be specified in inches or millimeters.

Gemco 955D Digital BRIK Gen III The 955D Digital BRIK Gen III is an accurate programmable, auto-tuning, non-contact, linear displacement transducer in an economical, low profi le package. The transducer utilizes our fi eld proven magnetostrictive technology to give absolute position, repeatable to .006% of the programmable sensing distance. The streamlined anodized aluminum extrusion houses the sensing element and electronics. The magnet moves over the sensing element that determines the position and converts it to either a control pulse, variable pulse or RS422 Start/Stop digital output. The 955D is compatible with PLC Interface Cards like our 2120L1 module and 1746 LTD Interface Card. The 955D BRIK Gen III has some truly unique features. The fi rst one is the LDT’s auto-tuning capability, the ability to sense a magnet other than the standard slide magnet and adjust its signal strength accordingly. There is a diagnostic LED located at the connector end of the probe that remains green while a good magnet signal is present and when the magnet is in the programmed stroke area. The LED turns yellow if no interrogation signal is detected. The LED turns red when there is no magnet present or when the magnet is out of the sensing area. The 955D BRIK is designed for applications where economical continuous feedback is necessary. The sensor can be a cost effective replacement to limit switches, proximity sensors, linear potentiometers and LVDT’s. Applications include presses, blow molding, injection molding, extrusion, roll positioning, dancer control and many more.
