T-Series – TH Analog

Product catalog summary
Overview: Temposonics® TH Analog linear position sensors are designed for precise position measurement in challenging industrial settings. They are non-contact, wear-free, and certified for hazardous areas under global standards like ATEX, UK Ex, and IECEx.
Measurement Principle: These sensors use a magnetostrictive principle, where a magnetic field from a current pulse interacts with a position magnet, creating a torsional strain pulse. This pulse is converted into an electrical signal for accurate position determination.
Technical Specifications:
  • Output: Current 4(0)…20 mA, with load limits of 0/500 Ω.
  • Resolution: 16 bit; 0.0015% (minimum 1 µm).
  • Cycle Time: 0.5 ms to 5.0 ms, depending on stroke length.
  • Linearity: < ±0.01% F.S. (minimum ±50 µm).
  • Operating Temperature: −40…+75 °C.
  • Ingress Protection: IP66/IP67/IP68/IP69 and NEMA 4/4X.
Certifications: Certified for flameproof and explosion-proof environments, meeting standards in Europe, UK, USA, Canada, South Korea, China, India, Japan, and more.
Design and Materials: The housing is stainless steel, with options for different grades. The sensor rod is also stainless steel, designed for high-pressure environments.
Connection Options: Offers various threaded flange types and connection configurations for diverse environments.
Applications: Ideal for hydraulic cylinders, petrochemical plants, and caustic environments.
Additional Information: Includes technical drawings, wiring diagrams, and accessory details.
Specifications: Detailed specifications for components include materials like PA ferrite GF20, PA 66-GF30, aluminum, and stainless steel (AISI 316L and 1.4571). Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +125°C, with specific gravity and pressure ratings varying by component. Fastening torque for M4 screws is 1 Nm.
Procedures and Recommendations: Installation and operational guidelines emphasize specific gravity differentials for float applications and offset weights for hazardous locations. Programming tools for sensor setup include hand and cabinet programmers.
Standards and Norms: Design dimensions are in millimeters and inches, with detailed ordering codes for sensor models, design, connection types, stroke lengths, and output configurations. ClassNK approval is required for certain configurations.
Additional Information: Contact details for Temposonics offices worldwide are provided, along with trademark ownership notices. Manuals, software, and 3D models are available online as part of the Temposonics data sheet series.

Temposonics® TH Analog Data Sheet MEASURING TECHNOLOGY 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...
