technology, which can determine position with a high level of

length of the waveguide. hen the ultrasonic wave reaches the end of
the waveguide it is converted into an electrical signal. Since the speed
of the ultrasonic wave in the waveguide is precisely known, the time
required to receive the return signal can be converted into a linear
position measurement with both high accuracy and repeatability.
odular mechanical and electronic construction
The sensor rod protects the inner sensor element.
The sensor electronics housing, a rugged stainless steel
construction, contains the complete electronic interface with active
signal conditioning.
The external position magnet is a permanent magnet. Mounted on
the mobile machine part, it travels along the sensor rod and triggers
the measurement through the sensor rod wall.
The sensor can be directly connected to a control system. Its
electronics generates a position signal output proportional to the
start and end of the active measuring range.
