MH-Series MH4 Plus AnalogMagnetostrictive Linear Position Sensors I Stroke length up to 2500 mm I Linearity < 0.04 % F.S. / Resolution typ. 0.1 mm I High reliability due to EMC, shock & vibration resistance

Temposonics® MH-Series MH4 Plus Analog Data Sheet The absolute, linear position sensors provided by Temposonics rely on the company’s proprietary magnetostrictive technology, which can determine position with a high level of precision and robustness. Each Temposonics® position sensor consists of a ferromagnetic waveguide, a position magnet, a strain pulse converter and a supporting electronics. The magnet, connected to the object in motion in the application, generates a magnetic field at its location on the waveguide. A short current pulse is applied to the waveguide. This creates a momentary...

Temposonics® MH-Series MH4 Plus Analog Data Sheet Connection schematics To ensure proper operation of the sensor, the hydraulic cylinder must be connected to the machine ground. Grounding is oftern ensured by the machanical contact between the cylinder and other machine elements. If the cylinder is connected with the machine separately, separate grounding, for example via a grounding strap directly on the cylinder must be ensured.
