Balluff Micropulse transducers in the Profile housing, with their mechanical design, the high protection rating, and their ease of installation, are an alternative to linear transducers such as potentiometers, glass scales, and LVDTs. The linear sensing element is protected in an aluminum extrusion. The measuring point along the sensing element (waveguide) is indicated by a passive marker (magnet), which needs no power.
The Micropulse transducer series rod style is the rugged position feedback system for use under extreme ambient conditions. The actual waveguide is protected inside a high-pressure resistant stainless steel tube. The system is ideal for use in hydraulic cylinders for position feedback or as a level monitor with aggressive media in the food and chemical industries.
