Linearity ±0,25% (±0,3% for analogue output types)
Speed: 0.5/1 m/sec. (see the table)
Spring max torque: strokes ≤1250 mm = 600 g
Strokes from 1.5 to 4 m = 1000 g - Over: 2200 g
SUS304 stainless steel wire covered with nylon 0,6/1 mm –
max load 16/60 Kg. (see the table)
Operating temperature -20 ÷ 70°C (0 ÷ 70°C for analogue output
types) - Relative moisture 35%-90%
Connections: cable 1 m long (HPS-S 0.5 m)
Protection degree IP64 (HPS-S: IP50)
INSTALLATION
Make sure that the distance to be run by the wire does not exceed the transducer nominal stroke; stretching the wire over its
nominal stroke damages the transducer seriously, and causes the decay of the garantee right.
Use 4 M3 screws with the following specifications to fix the potentiometer: HPS-M screws M3x8 - HLS-S screws M3x6
–HLS-L screws M4x10
The wire must run out of the bushing without angle to obtain the best tolerance in measurements.
It is possible to hook the fixing end of the wire at a steady point and move the transducer body instead of the wire.
If the application is not a linear one, use a pulley with a proper diameter to smooth the rotation and avoid damaging the wire.
If the product works in a severe environment, such as in presence of oil, water, heavy dust, iron chipping or any powder which can
damage the wire, apply a protective cover.
CONNECTIONS
Carry out the connections as shown in the diagram hereunder. The cable shield is not connected inside the transducer.
