Application
The Temposonics®position sensors are used for measurement and
conversion of the length (position) variable in the elds of automated
systems and mechanical engineering.
Principle of operation and system construction
The absolute, linear position sensors provided by Temposonics rely on
the company’s proprietary Temposonics®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 supporting electronics. The magnet, connected to the object in
motion in the application, generates a magnetic eld at its location on
the waveguide. A short current pulse is applied to the waveguide.
This creates a momentary radial magnetic eld and torsional strain
on the waveguide. The momentary interaction of the magnetic
elds releases a torsional strain pulse that propagates the length
of the waveguide. When 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.
Fig. 2: Time-based magnetostrictive position sensing principle
Modular mechanical and electronic construction
• The sensor rod or prole protects the inner sensor element.
• The sensor electronics housing, a rugged aluminum 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 or prole
and triggers the measurement through the sensor rod wall.
• The sensor can be connected directly to a control system.
Its electronics generates a strictly position-proportional signal
output between start and end position.

Controlling design dimensions are in millimeters and measurements in ( ) are in inches
Installation of RP5
The position sensor can be installed in any position. Normally,
the sensor is rmly installed and the position magnet is fastened
to the mobile machine part. Thus it can travel along the sensor prole.
The sensor is tted on a at machine surface using the mounting
clamps (Fig. 4). A length-dependent number of these clamps are
delivered with the sensor and must be distributed over the prole
at regular distances. For fastening use M5×20 screws to DIN 6912
that should be tightened with a fastening torque of 5 Nm.
Fig. 4: Mounting clamps (part no. 400 802) with cylinder screw M5×20
Fig. 5: T-slot nut M5 (part no. 401 602)
NOTICE
Take care to mount the sensor in an axially parallel position to
avoid damage to magnet and sensor.
Alternative:
If only limited space is available, the prole sensor can be mounted
also via the T-rail in the prole bottom using a T-slot nut M5
(part no. 401 602) or a sliding block (Fig. 5).

Hydraulics sealing
There are two ways to seal the ange contact surface (Fig. 10):
1. A sealing by using an O-ring (e.g. 22.4 × 2.65 mm (0.88 × 0.1 in.),
25.07 × 2.62 mm (0.99 × 0.1 in.)) in a cylinder end cap groove.
2. A sealing by using an O-ring in the ange undercut.
For threaded ange (¾"-16 UNF-3A):
O-ring 16.4 × 2.2 mm (0.65 × 0.09 in.) (part no. 560 315)
For threaded ange (M18×1.5-6g):
O-ring 15.3 × 2.2 mm (0.60 × 0.09 in.) (part no. 401 133)
For threaded ange (M22×1.5-6g):
O-ring 19.2 × 2.2 mm (0.76 × 0.09 in.) (part no. 561 337)
Installation of RH5 with threaded ange
Fix the sensor rod via threaded ange M18×1.5-6g, M22×1.5-6g or
¾"-16 UNF-3A.
Installation in a uid cylinder
The rod-style version has been developed for direct stroke
measurement in a uid cylinder. Mount the sensor via threaded ange
or a hex nut.
• Mounted on the face of the piston, the position magnet travels
over the rod without touching it and indicates the exact position
through the rod wall – independent of the hydraulic uid.
• The pressure resistant sensor rod is installed into a bore in the
piston rod.
• The base unit is mounted by means of three screws. It is the only
part that needs to be replaced if servicing is required, i.e. the
hydraulic circuit remains closed. For more information see chapter
“4.8 Replacement of sensor” on page 29.
Fig. 8: Mounting example of threaded ange
Fig. 9: Sensor in cylinder
In the case of threaded ange M18×1.5-6g or M22×1.5-6g, provide
a screw hole based on ISO 6149-1 (Fig. 11). See ISO 6149-1 for further
information.
• Note the fastening torque:
RH5-M: 65 Nm
RH5-S: 50 Nm
RH5-T: 55 Nm
RH5-J: 125 Nm
• Seat the ange contact surface completely on the cylinder
mounting surface.
• The cylinder manufacturer determines the pressure-resistant
gasket (copper gasket, O-ring, etc.).
• The position magnet should not grind on the sensor rod.
• The piston rod drilling
(RH5-M/-S/-T-A/-M/-V with rod Ø 10 mm: ≥ Ø 13 mm (≥ Ø 0.51 in.);
RH5-M/-S/-T-B with rod Ø 10 mm: ≥ Ø 16 mm (≥ Ø 0.63 in.);
RH5-J-A/-V with rod Ø 12.7 mm: ≥ Ø 16 mm (≥ Ø 0.63 in.))
depends on the pressure and piston speed.
• Adhere to the information relating to operating pressure.
• Protect the sensor rod against wear.

Fig. 13: Sensor with support tube
Installation of RFV
Note the following information when mounting and handling an RFV
sensor:
1. Always insert the exible sensor rod in a support tube (e.g.
pressure rod HD/HL/HP or HFP prole). The support tube has
to be made of non-magnetic material and has to have an inside
diameter of minimum 9.4 mm (0.37 in.) (Fig. 13). The support
tube can be straight or bent.
2. Do never bend beyond the minimum bending radius of 250 mm
(9.84 in.).
3. Note the minimum distance to a spatial limitation of 300 mm
(11.81 in.), when mounting/dismounting the sensor. The
recommended distance is 500 mm (20 in.) (Fig. 14).
4. Note the non-exible area of the sensor rod from the ange of
107 mm (4.21 in.) (for RFV-B) respectively 97 mm (3.82 in.) (for
RFV-M/-S).
NOTICE
Smaller radiuses < 250 mm (9.84 in.) cause damage to the exible
sensor rod.

Replacing an R-Series 2004 RF-C with an R-Series VRFV-B.
If you are replacing the R-Series 2004 RF-C base unit with the
R-Series VRFV-B base unit, note the following points:
• The R-Series 2004 RF-C base unit is attached to the system with
two screws. The R-Series VRFV-B base unit is mounted to the
machine with three screws.
• Therefore, we recommend using the adapter plate kit 255198.
The adapter plate is used to mount the base unit RFV-B with three
screws to the existing hole pattern with two screws.
• Fasten the adapter plate to the existing hole pattern using the
two M4×6 (A/F 2.5) hexagon socket screws with a tightening
torque of 1.4 Nm. Ensure that the O-ring is correctly seated be-
tween the system and the adapter plate. Secure the screws with
Loctite 243.
• Place the RFV-B base unit on the adapter plate.
• Attach the grounding lug to one screw of the base unit.
• Screw the RFV-B base unit to the adapter plate using the three
M4×59 hexagon socket screws (A/F 2.5) with a tightening
torque of 1.4 Nm. Ensure that the O-ring is correctly seated be-
tween the base sensor and the adapter plate. Secure the screws
with Loctite 243.
• The adapter plate has a thickness of 5 mm. Order the RFV-B base
unit with the addition H003 to compensate for the thickness of the
adapter plate: RFV-B-xxxxxx-…-H003

0.1in.), 25.07 × 2.62 mm (0.99 × 0.1 in.)) in a cylinder end cap
groove.
2. A sealing by using an O-ring in the ange undercut.
For threaded ange (¾"-16 UNF-3A) »S«: O-ring 16.4 × 2.2 mm
(0.65 × 0.09 in.) (part no. 560 315)
For threaded ange (M18×1.5-6g) »M«: O-ring 15.3 × 2.2 mm

4.5.1 Installation of RDV with threaded ange
Fix the sensor rod via threaded ange M18×1.5-6g or ¾"-16 UNF-3A.
Hydraulics sealing
There are two ways to seal the ange contact surface (Fig. 22):
1. Sealing via an O-ring (e.g. 22.4 × 2.65 mm, 25.07 × 2.62 mm) in a
cylinder end cap groove (for threaded ange »C« / »D«)
2. Sealing via an O-ring 16.4 × 2.2 mm (part no. 560 315) in the
ange undercut.
For threaded ange (¾"-16 UNF-3A) »D« / »T«:
O-ring 16.4 × 2.2 mm (0.65 × 0.09 in.) (part no. 560 315)
For threaded ange (M18×1.5-6g) »C« / »M«:
O-ring 15.3 × 2.2 mm (0.60 × 0.09 in.) (part no. 401 133)
In the case of threaded ange M18×1.5-6g provide a screw hole based
on ISO 6149-1 (Fig. 23). See ISO 6149-1 for further information.
• Note the fastening torques:
RDV-T: 65 Nm
RDV-M: 55 Nm
RDV-C: 65 Nm
RDV-D: 75 Nm
• Seat the ange contact surface completely on the cylinder mounting
surface.
• The cylinder manufacturer determines the pressure-resistant gasket
(copper gasket, O-ring, etc.).
• The position magnet should not grind on the sensor rod.
• The piston rod drilling (≥ Ø 13 mm (≥ Ø 0.51 in.)) depends on the
pressure and piston speed.
• Adhere to the information relating to operating pressure.
• Protect the sensor rod against wear.

NOTICE
Mount the sensor as follows:
1. Mount the ange with sensor rod
2. Mount the sensor electronics housing
3. Connect the cable between ange and the sensor electronics
housing
The steps mentioned above will be explained in the following sections.
Installation of a rod-style sensor in a uid cylinder
The rod-style version has been developed for direct stroke
measurement in a uid cylinder. Mount the sensor via threaded ange
or a hex nut.
• Mounted on the face of the piston, the position magnet travels
over the rod without touching it and indicates the exact position
through the rod wall – independent of the hydraulic uid.
• The pressure resistant sensor rod is installed into a bore in the
piston rod.
