Linear wire transducers, absolute and incremental

PF50/900

Wire linear potentiometric transducers

The PF are wire potentiometric position transducers that turn a linear motion into a resistance variation.
Special features of the PF transducers are their low cost and easy assembling.
They are made of a precision rotating potentiometer operated by a winding or unwinding stainless steel wire.
Available stroke: 50 - 100 - 200 - 300 - 500 - 700 - 900 mm
➤ Available version with analogue output ‘T’: I = 4- 20mA or V = 0- 10V
Linked together a display or an electronic positioner (for example V3P, V4P, VE6P, P3X) it supplies a simple, effective system to measure linear or angular motions on machine tools, automatic-,wood-, marble-, glassworking machinery, cylindrical-hydraulic-, pneumatic stroke, shutiers etc.
• These transducers are carried out in self-extinguishing, shock-proof plastic cases which are solvents-, petrol-, greases-, oils- proof.

The instruments of the V_P series are multifunction microprocessor display units with input from potentiometric transducer that are particularly indicated for the measurement of linear and angular dimensions.
• V3P: the measured dimension may be compared with 3 intervention thresholds that may be set for the enabling of as many relays, the status of which is displayed through a led.
Versions: V3P- displayed, V3P-3 displayed with 3 intervention ON/OFF.
• V4P: the measured value can be compared with 2 or 3 alarms settable for enabling many relays whose status is displayed by LEDs. Two analog outputs, a voltage 0-10V or -10 to +10 V, the other 4 ÷ 20mA 12-bit resolution, and its possible to configure the instrument and check its status via serial interface RS485 with MODBUS RTU protocol.

The P_X positioning units serie are programmable microprocessor single-axis positioner with relay or analogue outputs.
• P3X: processes signals provided by potentiometric position transducers linear or rotary. The 16-key keyboard with 6 operation indicators make it simple and easy to use and the setup of the positioner.
