958A Embedded Linear Displacement Transducer the most trusted information comes from INSIDE

The Need for Automation is Greater Today Than Ever Before L INEAR DISPLACEMENT TRANSDUCERS (LDTs) play an important role in automation. They provide accu- rate, reliable, absolute position feedback to help automate today’s sophisticated machinery. Sensors must deliver value, be easy to set up, and interface easily into the host controller. We know today’s industrial challenges are extreme, so we designed and built a sensor to meet and exceed these demands, regardless of the application or environment. Innovation, proprietary technology and decades of experience were the key to the...

Technology and Performance Benefits of Magnetostrictive Technology AGNETOSTRICTIVE TECHNOLOGY is the preferred feedback for hydraulic cylinders. The technology is absolute and Diagnostics: Eliminate guess- can withstand the pressures and temperatures associated with hydraulic cylinders. Operating Pressures up to 5000 PSI and work, and quickly identify the cause of unexpected readings. Diagnostics built into the analog output notify the host controller if the magnet signal is ever lost, or if the machine has moved beyond its programmed range. Spikes to 10,000 PSI with response times in the...
