Connection and Wiring:
  • Connector: M12, available in 5-pin and 8-pin configurations depending on the model.
  • Signal Wiring: Detailed pin configurations provided for each output type.
Accessories: Connector cables are available for different configurations, details provided in the document.
Specifications: The document outlines the specifications for a sensor system, including an excitation voltage range of 8 to 36 V DC and typical excitation currents of 20 mA at 24 V DC and 40 mA at 12 V DC, with a maximum of 80 mA. The measuring rate is 1 kHz (asynchronous), and the system offers temperature stability of ±50 x 10-6/°C full scale (typical) and repeatability of 1 LSB. Operating temperature specifications depend on the respective sensor. The system is protected against reverse polarity and short circuits, with a dielectric strength of 1 kV (V AC, 50 Hz, 1 min.). It complies with EMC standard EN 61326-1:2013.
Signal Wiring: The sensor uses an M12, 5-pin connector for signal wiring. The output signals are mapped to specific connector pins with corresponding cable colors: Shield (pin 1, brown), Excitation + (pin 2, white), GND (pin 3, blue), CAN-H (pin 4, black), and CAN-L (pin 5, grey).
CAN Specification: The system supports CAN Specification ISO 11898, Basic and Full CAN 2.0 B, with a 24V-compliant, non-isolated transceiver. It follows the SAE J1939 communication profile with a baud rate of 250 kbit/s. The internal termination resistor is 120 Ω, adjustable by the customer. The default address is 247d, which is configurable.
Accessories: Various connector cables are available, including M12, 4-pin and 5-pin options, both in angular and straight couplings. These cables are shielded and available in lengths of 2 m, 5 m, and 10 m, with a wire cross-sectional area of 0.34 mm² and a cable diameter of 5.6 ±0.2 mm. The document also details order codes for these cables, including IP69-rated versions.
Additional Components: The document mentions additional components such as a T-connector for bus cables and a terminating resistor for M12, 5-pin CAN-Bus systems. These components are designed for use with cable carriers, supporting a maximum movement speed of 3 m/s, maximum acceleration of 5 m/s², and a minimum bending radius of 10 times the cable diameter.
Connector Cable M12, 8 Pin: The 8-pin connector cables are also available in angular and straight couplings, with a wire cross-sectional area of 0.25 mm² and a cable diameter of 6.3 ±0.2 mm. These cables are suitable for cable carriers with the same movement and bending specifications as the 4-pin and 5-pin cables.
Additional Information: The document provides an order code for a tape pulley (WBR1) and notes that dimensions are informative only, recommending consultation with the factory for guaranteed dimensions.
