Temposonics® Absolute, Non-Contact Position Sensors Data Sheet C-Series OEM-Sensor PWM Temposonics C-Series ® Document Part No. 551395 Revision A Magnetostrictive Position MeasuringLinear Length 72 - 250 mmSensors Contactless measurement – entirely wear-free Low weight – ideal for small portable OEM products Cost-efficient Space-saving – the smallest sensor in the market offers all advantages of magnetostrictive measurement technology Low energy requirement – can be operated from 5 VDC supply No wear – no need for periodic re-adjustment Available with various position magnets Optional: assignment of output signal to measuring length The OEM sensor is designed as a built-in product. The sensor is a function of the customer requirements according to the application, and considering the environment, environmental influences, including EMI protection effects. Magnetostriction The absolute Temposonics linear position sensors are based on the proprietary magnetostrictive measuring principle. This combines various magnetomechanical effects and uses the physically exact velocity measurement of an ultrasonic wave (torsion pulse in its sensor element) for position detection. The sensor-integrated signal processing converts the measured values directly into commercially available outputs. The non-contact principle - an external moving magnet marks the position - eliminates the problems of wear, noise and false signals and guarantees best durability without recalibration.

Application examples: The target in customer solutions is a high degree of efficiency and synergy to the product. During the design phase measurements need to be taken which enable the product to meet customer requirements suitable for the application. In this respect, close cooperative partnership between the customer and Temposonics is desirable. All constructive measures relating to operating parameters (vibration, temperature and ESD) require consultation with Temposonics. This also includes the CE marking of components used for installation. Level measurement in medical technology An analyser...
