Linear displacement sensor CD50 series

potentiometerIP54

APPLICATIONS • - CD50 sensors are cable displacement sensors. They are used to measure (in absolute or in incremental mode) the displacement of a mobile object from its datum. • - Injection moulding machines. • - Forging machines and bending machines. • - Material testing machines. • - Measurement of torques on machines. • - Cylinder servo-systems. • - Manipulator. DESCRIPTION A linear CD50 works according to the principle of a thread taut between a mobile element and a fixed element, fitted with a return spring drum. The drum then converts the linear displacement into an angle displacement. The shaft of the drum is fitted with a potentiometer, and operates an incremental encoder or an absolute encoder.
