These industrial grade Cable-Extension Position Transducers range from 0-10 (254mm) to 0-250 (6350mm) inches.
Available in 9 different types:
- Voltage Divider - PT5A
- 4 ... 20mA - PT5MA
- 0 ... 10 VDC - PT5DC
- Incremental Encoder - PT5E
- Position/Velocity - PT5AV
- CANBus - PT5CN
- DeviceNET - PT5DN
- RS232 - PT5232
- String Encoder - PT5600
Voltage Divider - PT5A
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5A potentiometric cable-extension transducer uses a unique thermoplastic cable that has a virtually infinite fatigue life. This cable, known as V62, has properties that are superior for high cycle and rugged applications.
4 ... 20mA - PT5MA
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5MA potentiometric cable-extension transducer uses a unique thermoplastic cable that has a virtually infinite fatigue life. This cable, known as V62, has properties that are superior for high cycle and rugged applications.
0 ... 10 VDC - PT5DC
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5DC potentiometric cable-extension transducer uses a unique thermoplastic cable that has a virtually infinite fatigue life. This cable, known as V62, has properties that are superior for high cycle and rugged applications.
Incremental Encoder - PT5E
- Range: 0-50 (1270mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5DC encoder-based cable-extension transducer offers a unique thermoplastic cable that has a virtually infinite fatigue life. This cable, known as V62, has properties that are superior for high cycle and rugged applications.
Position/Velocity - PT5AV
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5AV is a combination position and velocity transducer. A precision plastic-hybrid potentiometer provides accurate position feedback while a self-generating DC tachometer provides a velocity signal that is proportional to the speed of the traveling measuring cable.
CANBus - PT5CN
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5CN cable extension position transducer communicates linear position via the CANbus SAE J1939 interface providing a precision position feedback to your PLC. The PT5DN is offered in full stroke ranges up to 250 inches and a thermoplastic measuring cable for high cycle and rugged applications.
Because the PT5CN uses a potentiometer as it’s sensing element, the position signal is “absolute” and does not have to be reset to a “home” position upon startup.
DeviceNET - PT5DN
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5DN, using a high cycle plastic-hybrid potentiometer, communicates via DeviceNET protocol with programmable controllers in factories and harsh environments requiring linear position measurements in ranges up to 250”.
RS232 - PT5232
- Range: 0-10 (254mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The PT5232 delivers position feedback via RS232 serial communication to your data acquisition or controller system. The PT5232 sends a raw 16-bit position count from 0000 to FFFF (hex). Additionally this device can be set to continuously send data or send data only when polled.
As the internal position sensing element is a precision potentiometer, the transducer maintains current accurate position even during power loss and does not have to be reset to a “home” position upon startup.
String Encoder - PT5600
- Range: 0-50 (1270mm)
- 0-250 inches (6350mm)
The unique linear-to-rotational, industrial-grade string encoder module mates to virtually any encoder, giving you a cost-effective linear position measurement solution that precisely fits your requirements. The PT5600 takes just minutes to install, fits easily into tight areas, does not require perfectly parallel alignment, and provides reliable and precise position measurements without needing periodic adjustments.
