Hydraulic Cylinder Position Sensors

    May 5, 2005
    M-Series family of mobile hydraulic position sensors is designed for 2-in.-diameter cylinders (or larger).

    With measuring range of 2 to 78 in., they double available stroke length as well as maintain accuracy and repeatability. Three position output options including 0 to 5 V, 4 to 20 mA, or PWM (16 recirculations). Operating temperature of -40 to 105°C. Available with individual wire or cable connections and simultaneous velocity output for precise closed loop control.
