Inductive linear displacement transducers IWE250

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and operational details for the Inductive Linear Displacement Transducers, Model IWE 250, which are used for precise measurement of linear displacement. These transducers are contactless, robust, and offer infinite resolution with no hysteresis.
Specifications:
  • Measuring Strokes: Available in 20 mm, 40 mm, 100 mm, and 200 mm.
  • Resolution: 12 Bits in natural binary format.
  • Protection Class: IP 66, ensuring resistance to vibration, shock, humidity, oil, and corrosive substances.
  • Supply Voltage: 21.5 to 32 VDC, protected against reverse polarity.
  • Output: Digital interface SSI with a clock frequency of 125 Hz.
  • Linearity: Options of 0.5% or 0.25%.
  • Temperature Drift: Less than 0.01% per °C.
  • Operating Temperature Range: -10°C to +80°C.
  • Storage Temperature Range: -30°C to +80°C.
Construction and Operating Principle: The transducer operates on the principle of a differential choke, consisting of two coils within a stainless steel cylinder. A mu-metal plunger core alters inductance as it moves, which is converted into a proportional digital signal by an integral electronic circuit.
Environmental and Mechanical Data:
  • Shock Resistance: 250 g SRS at 20 to 2000 Hz.
  • Vibration Resistance: 20 g rms (50 g peak) at 20 to 2000 Hz.
  • Materials: Chrome-nickel steel for external and internal tubes, mu-metal core, brass connector case, and gold-plated contacts.
Special Features: The transducer can be calibrated for reverse action upon request. Special versions with cable exits are available, and measuring strokes can be customized without affecting resolution or case length.
Accessories: Optional accessories include a stainless tube for plunger protection, metal mounting block, and counter plug with metal housing.
Order Code Format: The document provides a detailed order code format for specifying mechanical or electrical deviations, ball joint configurations, and gauge options.
Dimensions and Masses: Detailed dimensions and masses for different configurations are provided, including standard versions, versions with ball joints, and gauge versions with return springs.

Inductive linear displacement transducers IWE250-1

Inductive Linear Displacement Transducers Model IWE 250 Measuring strokes : 20 mm, 40 mm, 100 mm, 200 mm ■ Contactless, robust sensor system ■ Infinite resolution, no hysteresis ■ Digital interface SSI ■ Resolution 12 Bits / natural binary ■ Gauge with spring return up to 100 mm ■ Protection class IP 66 Construction and operating principle The displacement transducer operates according to the principle of the differential choke, i.e. an inductive half bridge. It consists of two coils which are encapsulated in a stainless steel cylinder. A mu-metal plunger core causes opposing changes of inductance when it is displaced through the centre of the coils. These changes are converted by the integral electronic circuit into a signal proportional to the displacement. A 12 bits A/D converter supplied a proportional digital signal wich can be calibrated before delivery via on integral-controler. The transducers are completely sealed to ensure positive protection against vibration, shock, humidity, oil and corrosive matter. Standard measuring strokes: 20 mm, 40 mm, 100 mm, 200 mm Special calibration Up on request the measuring stroke can be reduced without affecting neither the resolution nor the case length, e.g. 30 mm measuring stroke (IWE 250/300) will be generated using IWE 250/40.

Note: If not otherwise indicated all data are valid at 20° C ambiant temperature, at Vs = 24 VDC and 30 min. turn-on time. Measuring direction The measuring signal increases when the plunger moves in direction of the connector. Up to request the reverse action can be calibrated before delivery.
