The sensor works on the principle of magnetostriction. This measuring principle determines with high accuracy the position, distance and/or speed and is based on elapsed time measurement.

Utilizing this non-contact and wear-free measuring system, HYDAC offers a version in an aluminium profile housing with external measuring slides or with a sliding magnet for positioning by the operator. The different output signals (analog current / voltage) enable connection to all HYDAC ELECTRONIC GmbHmore measurement and control devices as well as standard evaluation systems (e.g. PLC controls) External set inputs for the analog start point and end point offer an additional possibility of a customised adjustment.

The HLT 2500-L2 is primarily used in stationary applications, especially when a partially integrated solution in hydraulic cylinders is not possible. less
