Description
Penny & Giles SLT190 Contactless linear position transducer is designed to provide reliable, fit-and-forget position sensing (up to 500mm) within a compact transducer size for the most arduous operating environments.
- Contactless sensing with inductive coil technology
- Small transducer body length to stroke ratio
- 25mm to 500mm stroke range
- Infinite resolution
- Absolute measurement
- Rugged stainless steel construction, resistant to shock and vibration
- Operates from -40 to +150°C
- CE approved
- Rapid despatch of any length
The SLT190 has been designed with twenty-first century applications in mind. The linear position transducer can operate in temperatures from -40 to +150°C and has been tested to withstand shocks to 10,000g. With EMC Immunity of 100V/m, this transducer is ready for the harshest of applications.
To minimise the position transducer size and the impact on the overall system, we provide separate signal conditioning electronics (EICT or EICTM) housed in rugged IP66 or IP68 rated enclosures. The electronics module can be located up to 10m away from the transducer, well away from any hostile conditions (vibration, mechanical impact, temperature) that the position transducer may encounter during operation. The result is a more reliable transducer solution, easily installed and adjusted and more flexible in the choice of outputs available – including voltage, current and digital PWM.
The Penny & Giles product range comprises a broad selection of joysticks, sensors and solenoids for use on commercial vehicles and industrial equipment.
The products are the legacy of the Penny & Giles company founded in 1956 and acquired by Curtiss Wright in 2002.
The present-day product range includes: linear and rotary position sensors; LVDT and RVDT transducers; joysticks; studio faders; digital panel meters; and solenoid actuators for a wide range of industrial motion control applications.
Their joystick controls are suitable for commercial vehicle applications for both on- and off-highway use. These include construction and agricultural vehicles, material handling and other specialty vehicles. They are also suitable for use with industrial equipment such as robotics. Their finger-operated joystick controllers are designed for the smooth, precise control of critical functions in a variety of industrial applications where a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) is required. They also have rugged joystick controllers are designed for the more demanding installations found within operator cabs for off-highway vehicles. A wide range of linear position sensors, tilt sensors, rotary sensors, linear displacement transducers and linear potentiometers that offer distinct advantages in reliability, stability and compactness.
