The aluminium housing provides a reliable protection in non hostile environments. The reliable draw wire mechanic in combination with the rotary encoders provides long lasting maintenance free operation.
Cylindrical Housing
cyl_housing
A high precision draw wire is designed into a small package that will fit in assemblies with limited space. The aluminium housing gives provides protection for indoor usage. The draw wire mechanism allows wire accelerations of up to 12g making it an ideal choice for dynamic applications with fast movements. In combination with a precise optical or magnetic absolute rotary encoder, very high measurement precision can be achieved.
Measuring Length 1.74 m [ 68.5 in]
Multiple interface options
High wire acceleration for high dynamic applications
Draw Wire Model:
Draw-Wire-WDS-1740-Z60-M(07)
Footprint without rotary encoder: 49 x 58 mm [1.91 x 2.28 in]
Rectangular Housing
rec_housing
The rectangular aluminium housings provide a combination of protection in non hostile environments with a variety of measurement lengths. Reliable draw wire mechanics in combination with the rotary encoder provides long lasting maintenance free operation. The draw wires can be combined with almost all available rotary encoder interfaces. Unlike potentiometer based draw wires, the rotary encoder do not loose accuracy over time.
