EP/EL IO-Link Magnetostrictive Linear Position Sensor
Brand: Temposonics an Amphenol Company
Robust, non-contact and wear free, the Temposonics linear position sensor provide high durability and precise position measurement feedback in harsh industrial environments.
Measurement accuracy is tightly controlled by the quality of the waveguide manufactured exclusively by MTS Sensors.
The compact Temposonics EP as well as the ultra low Temposonics EL are profile sensors suitable for standard applications and in particularly for applications with limited installation space.
The evaluation electronics is accomodated in an aluminum sensor housing. Typical fields of applications are plastics industry, metal forming and woodworking as well as factory automation.
Temposonics EP / EL with IO-Link allows customers to adjust parameters including measuring direction, resolution or offset. In addition, a switching state can be outputted in parallel to the transfer of the position value.
The switching points as well as the switching logic can be parameterized. IO-Link is an open standard according to IEC 61131-9. It is a serial, bi-directional point-to-point connection for signal transmission and energy supply.
The bi-directional communication enables consistent communication between sensors and the controller as well as consistent diagnostic information down to the sensor level.
