DESCRIPTION

Applications

Magtrol’s line of Displacement Transducers provide
contactless measurement of absolute piston position in
hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders and other applications.
Their robust construction, large insensitivity to shocks and
very long life (due to no moving parts and therefore no wear
of components) make them both cost effective and very
reliable. Magtrol transducers offer a wide range of operational
temperatures and admissible pressure resistance for even the
most demanding applications.

The DI series of displacement transducers were developed
principally for OEM applications in the hydraulic industry.
They enable the direct and reliable measurement of the
position of:
•t Hydraulic Cylinderst
•t Steam Inlet Valves
•t Control Valvest
•t Propellers
•t Servo Controlst
•t Stone Crushers
Their design is such that the installation cost is kept to a
minimum. This cost-effectiveness results from the limitation
to one fixed standard signal of 4 to 20 mA with very precise
determination of the measurement interval (from 0 to full
scale) on the sensing element.

The transducer provides a direct 4–20 mA output signal
corresponding to the measuring range, as well as VDC
temperature output. As an option Magtrol offers the CST 113
Signal Converter, which allows the complete chain to be
calibrated according to the specific needs, either in current
or voltage output.
