Position transmitter for T-slots SDAT-MHS Programmable Highlights • SDAT-MHS and SMAT-8M: transmitter solutions for large and small drives • High repetition accuracy • Programmable IO-Link/ switching output • Five sensing ranges to match the most important standard strokes. • Sensor function and mechanical mounting harmonised with all Festo drives. Whether it is for monitoring screwing in, riveting, ultrasonic w elding, pressing or adhesive bonding processes, piston positions always need to be detected in order to ensure high repetition a ccuracy. Now there is an inexpensive alternative to costly ositional p transducers or mechanical potentiometers: the programmable SDAT-MHS for analogue feedback signals. Reliable and precise The five sensing ranges of the position transmitter correspond to the most commonly used strokes of Festo cylinders. The SDAT-MHS is thus able to detect complete strokes without projecting b eyond the end of the cylinders. And its sensing range doesn’t fall short of the cylinder strokes e ither. So the good news is that the SDAT-MHS detects the full stroke length, including end p ositions, without the need for additional cylinder sensors. High performance Analogue current output, s witching output and IO-Link combined in a single unit. This means that users with just one controller can enjoy maximum flexibility in their choice of signal processing method. Simply economical A simple graphical user interface allows up to 4 channels to be programmed in IO-Link mode, either as a cylinder sensor or a window or hysteresis comparator. This means that almost all applications can be controlled without having to program the analogue output of a PLC
