Temposonics® T-Series TH magnetostrictive position sensors have been specially designed for installation in potentially explosive areas where they have to be resistant against flames or corrosive substances.
Key Features Include:
- Developed for use in hazardous areas with approvals ATEX, NEC, CEC, EAC Ex, IEC EX, KCs and for the Japanese market
- IP66/IP67/IP68/IP69 and NEMA 4/4x ratings
- Available as rod version (TH) for linear position measurement in a cylinder
- Outputs: Analog, CANbus, SSI
Robust, non-contact and wear free, the Temposonics® linear position sensors provide best durability and accurate position measurement solutions in harsh industrial environments. The position measurement accuracy is tightly controlled by the quality of the waveguide which is manufactured by Temposonics. The position magnet is mounted on the moving machine part and travels contactlessly over the sensor rod with the built-in waveguide.
The T-Series TH sensor is extremely robust and ideal for continuous operation under harsh industrial conditions. T-Series sensors are certified for hazardous areas in Zone 0/1, Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21 and Zone 22 for Europe (ATEX), the English, Welsh and Scottish (UK Ex), the global (IECEx) market, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAC Ex), the South Korean (KCs), the Chinese (CCC) and the Japanese market, as well as for use in Class I, II, III, Division 1, Division 2 for Canada (CEC) and USA (NEC).
The sensor electronics housing contains the active signal conditioning and a complete integrated electronics interface. The sensor rod is capable of withstanding high pressures such as those found in hydraulic cylinders. Furthermore the sensor is also suitable for petrol chemical plants and caustic environments. Additionally, the sensor meets the ingress protection IP66/IP67/IP68 (100 m for 7 days)/IP69 and NEMA 4 (for sensor assembly in stainless steel 1.4305 (AISI 303)) or NEMA 4x (for sensor assembly in stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L)).
