1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1�1 Product identication
All transducers are marked with a label and a security note. Additionally the serial number is stamped into the transducer housing
nearby the test point. For any questions regarding the transducer or spare parts, please specify the type and serial number.
2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The WayCon SX300 Draw Wire Series is designed for use in combination with hydraulic cylinders and measuring the cylinder
position. Especially designed for long stroke cylinders with pressurized housings to be anged directly to the cylinder head. By
giving feed back signals to a machine control unit, it is possible to control the position of a cylinder, to program specic movements
or to manage synchronous movements of several cylinders. Due to its small overall size, its short assembly time and its possible
customisation, this sensor technology is a cost-eective and exible solution for a wide range of industrial applications.
Typical Applications
►hydraulic gates for dam control
►synchronous run of more than one cylinder
►sluice gate control
►cylinder acceleration and speed control
►stroke control of fairground ride applications
