Displacement Transducer Applications


Description/Features • Operating Principles • Data Sheet

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:
  • Hydraulic Cylinder
  • Steam Inlet Valves
  •  
  • Propellers
  • Stone Crusher
  •  
  • Servo Controls
  • Control Valves
  • 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.

    Hydraulic Cylinder
    cylinder drawing Displacement sensors are mounted inside hydraulic cylinders. The sensors are highly resistant to vibration, pressure (up to 450 bars) and have an excellent behavior on thermal compensation.

    Steam Turbine - Power Regulation
    propeller drawing Displacement Transducers are used in hydraulic servo motors to regulate the position control of steam inlet valves.
