Magnetostrictive position sensor

The R-series SSI output sensor includes options for synchronized 7,500 kHz update rates and position accuracy as low as ±20 microns. The company’s proprietary synchronization technology is said to guarantee accurate position output while minimizing inherent, system-related delays, producing produce smooth, precise velocity loop control. An internal measurement, error-checking routine ensures immunity to shock and vibration. The sensor also includes EMC immunity level (IEC/EN 50082-2, IEC/EN 61000-4-2/3/4/6, level 3/4 criterion A). Like all R-series model products, the SSI output sensor comes standard with an IP67 housing (IP68 with integral cable), as well as optional ATEX-approved, explosion-proof and NEMA 4X housings.
