Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides technical specifications and application details for potentiometric displacement sensors, specifically models 8712 and 8713, manufactured by Burster Praezisionsmesstechnik GmbH & Co KG. These sensors are designed for precise measurement of mechanical displacements.
Specifications:
  • Measurement Ranges: 0 to 10 mm up to 150 mm.
  • Non-linearity: From 0.05% Full Scale (F.S.).
  • Durability: 108 operations.
  • Resolution: 0.01 mm.
  • Optional Features: Internal spring and follower roll available on request.
Technical Data:
  • Electrical Values: Resistance varies with measurement range, with a maximum operating voltage of 60 V for ranges up to 150 mm. Recommended slider circuit current is less than 0.1 µA.
  • Environmental Conditions: Storage temperature range is -50°C to 120°C, with a nominal operating range of -30°C to 100°C.
  • Mechanical Values: Non-linearity and resolution are specified, with a displacement speed of up to 10 m/s and shock resistance of 50 g for 11 ms.
Applications: These sensors are suitable for direct measurement, testing, and monitoring of mechanical displacements in various applications such as electromagnets, hydraulic cylinders, switches, and buttons. They are also used for measuring deformation, bending, press-fits, and feed strokes.
Accessories: The document lists various accessories including probe tips, mounting sets, and connectors compatible with the sensors.
Important Notes: The sensors' optimal performance is achieved with a slider current of less than 0.1 µA. For higher currents, an operational amplifier is recommended.
Dimensional Drawings: The document includes dimensional drawings for models 8712 and 8713, which can be downloaded online for integration into CAD systems.

Model 8712 Model 8713 Model 8713-5xxx-V302 Internal spring ■ These displacement sensors are potentiometric displacement sensors used for direct measurement, testing and monitoring of mechanical displacements. The spring-loaded control rod eliminates the need of coupling with the measurement object. A prerequisite for a very long life duration of the devices is a parallel alignment of the motion direction of the measurement object and the rod. Durability 108 operations Resolution 0.01 mm Follower roll on request Optional with internal spring Due to the technology employed in potentiometric displacement sensors, they always operate with a sliding contact system. Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick/slip, resistance to abrasion and a long-term stability. The rods are guided in long-life, low friction sliding bearings with close tolerances which provide high durability and measuring quality. The pre-stressed spring presses the sensor tip against the measurement object. This spring is double-guided and disappears in the probe head, if the rod is in its end position. The probe tip consists of a ball made of stainless steel. The bore at rod end serves for coupling retraction units. The rod is protected against twist for measurement ranges up to 50 mm. The probe tip (hexagonal) must not be turned by any tool, otherwise its anti-twist protection will be destroyed. Technical changes reserved.
