Series 600 High Accuracy ADTs

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Series 600 Angular Displacement Transducers (ADTs) are precision differential capacitors designed for high accuracy in measuring shaft angular displacement. They offer continuous rotation without reactive torque and are free from high-speed rubbing contacts, ensuring reliable performance.
Key Features: The transducers operate within a range of ±30º to ±60º with DC voltage operation. They exhibit non-linearity of less than 0.05% for absolute measurements.
Specifications:
  • Model 0600-0000: Displacement range of ±30°, linearity of ±0.05%, and output of 100 mV/°.
  • Model 0603-0000: Displacement range of ±60°, linearity of ±0.10%, and output of 100 mV/°.
  • Common electrical specifications include repeatability of less than 0.01%, infinite resolution, and a maximum angular velocity of 1,440°/sec.
Mechanical Specifications: The transducers have a nominal weight of 12.5 oz. and can operate within a temperature range of +32°F to +167°F. They are designed for mounting in any position and have a maximum radial load capacity of 10 lbs.
Installation: The transducers can be mounted in any position, and the shaft position is predetermined by aligning the shaft slot with the drill spot on the transducer face.
Sales Options: Additional options include vibration protection, material modification for vacuum environments, increased axial load tolerance, and optional side connector configurations.

Series 600 High Accuracy ADTs-1

Series 600 High Accuracy ADTs The Series 600 Angular Displacement Transducers (ADT’s) are precision differential capacitors. These transducers do not have the edge effects and dimensional instability characteristic of traditional capacitive devices. The sensing element is coupled to a solid state oscillator, demodulator, and amplifier to yield DC input — DC output performance. These transducers deliver a high level analog DC voltage directly proportional to shaft angular displacement with a high degree of conformity. Rotation is continuous and there is no reactive torque. Reliable performance is assured by the absence of any high speed rubbing contacts. KEY FEATURES Ranges from ±30º to ±60º Absolute Measurement LINEARITY USABLE RANGE INPUT/ OUTPUT CURVE *Definition: Zero Base Terminal Average, expressed as a max % deviation of total range.

REMOTE ZERO OPERATION REMOTE; ZERO CONNECTIONS Rb'iKjIii ZBTCJ CLTIUUI Output OraLfri Unless operating in a noise free environment, the lead to pin C must be shielded, as shown. The existing zero adjust potentiometer in the Angular Displacement Transducer must be rotated fully clockwise before the remote zero control can function correctly. This remote function is useful in applications where it is inconvenient to access the adjustment screw on the transducer housing.
