rk4 

Overview

Contactless linear position transducer with magnetostrictive technology: the absence of electrical contact on the cursor eliminates problems of wear and consumption and guarantees almost unlimited life.

The reduced dead zones and the head’s threaded shape and small size make the RK-4 series ideal for applications requiring the installation of the transducer partially inside the hydraulic cylinder as a simplified alternative compared to the models of the IK4 series.

The overall dimensions of the sensor are among the smallest available on the market.

For what concerns the output signal, the analog interface gives the displacement of a single cursor (available in the several ranges in Voltage or Current).

Excellent linearity, repeatability, resistance to mechanical vibrations and shocks complete the product’s specifications overview.

Contactless linear position transducer with magnetostrictive technology: the absence of electrical contact on the cursor eliminates problems of wear and consumption and guarantees almost unlimited life.

The head’s flanged shape and small size make the RK-2 series ideal for applications requiring installation completely inside the hydraulic cylinder.

The overall dimensions of the sensor are among the smallest available on the market.

For the interface signal, you can choose between a start/stop interface (which allows the use of multiple cursors) and an analog interface that gives the displacement of a single cursor (available in the several ranges in Voltage or Current).

Excellent linearity, repeatability, resistance to mechanical vibrations and shocks complete the product's specifications overview.

Description

  • Absolute transducer
  • Strokes from 50 to 4000mm (RK-2-_ _ _ _ -N/E/S)
  • Digital output RS422 Start/Stop (RK-2-_ _ _ _ -S)
  • Direct analog output (RK-2-_ _ _ _ -N/K/E)
  • Operating temperature: -30...+90°C
  • Resistance to vibration (DIN IEC68T2/6 20g)
  • Power supply 18Vdc...30Vdc
  • Optional 12Vdc power supply (RK-2-_ _ _ _ -K)
  • The digital version (RK-2-_ _ _ _ -S) allows the remote connection (max. 50 m) of optional electronics for use of advanced analog (EKA) or CANopen (EKC) interfaces

All accessories available for the proper installation of magnetostrictive transducers. To be selected separately from the sensor.

Overview

Linear position transducer with GEFRAN’S innovative ONDA magnetostrictive technology for long life.

The absence of electrical contact on the cursor eliminates wear and guarantees almost unlimited life.

Gefran’s patented ONDA technology achieves a compact, modular structure for simple installation.

RK-5 is a magnetostrictive position transducer with flanged connection that installs completely inside oil-pressure cylinders.

Its unique design, plus a wide range of cursor configurations, ensures easy installation and total compatibility with cylinder manufacturer specifications.

Working temperature from -40 to +105°C, working pressures up to 350 bar, high resistance to vibration (25 g) and shock (100g) give the sensor the indispensable strength needed for heavy-duty use (for example: mobile hydraulics).

High performance in terms of transduction of measurement defined as linearity, hystersis and repeatability.

The signal is analog in models with current or voltage output.

Description

  • Absolute transducer
  • Stroke: 50 to 2500mm
  • Direct analog output (RK-5 N/K/E)
  • Inverse analog output (RK-5 O/I/R)
  • Operating temperature: -40...+105°C
  • Vibration-resistant (DIN IEC68T2/6 25g)
  • Power range 10VDC...32VDC current output
  • Power range 8VDC...32VDC voltage output

Gefran presents its new TPFAS Series, a fluid-free pressure transmitter with miniature flush diaphragm and measurement ranges from 0-25 bar to 0-600 bar.

May 15, 2015

Gefran presents its new TPFAS Series, a fluid-free pressure transmitter with miniature flush diaphragm and measurement ranges from 0-25 bar to 0-600 bar.

A flush diaphragm is needed to measure the pressure of high-viscosity and abrasive fluids, because a normal transmitter with traditional retracted diaphragm and threading with through-hole would clog immediately and stop working.

With bonded strain gauge on stainless steel technology and a thick, fluid-free stainless steel diaphragm, the TPFAS Series is very robust and resistant, suitable for measuring the pressure of high-viscosity and abrasive fluids such as resin, silicone, polyurethane, glue, rubber, cement, concrete, pastes, mixes, etc.).

In addition to its robustness, the TPFAS’s great advantage is its miniature diaphragm, available in two versions (Ø10.9 mm with G ¼” and Ø8.6 mm with M10x1 threaded connection), making it easy to install even in tight spaces.

The Ø8.6 mm diaphragm with M10x1 threaded connection is the smallest of its kind on the market, making this product unique! The TPFAS series is also available with the Digital Autozero option, a very useful function activated with a magnetic pen. This function makes the product extremely versatile and efficient, ideal for all industrial applications on mix/meter/dispense machines for resin and polyurethane, glue and adhesive machines, rubber processing machines, cement and concrete mixer pumps, etc.

Overview

TPFAS Series flush diaphragm pressure transmitters are based on bonded strain gauge on stainless steel technology.

Thanks to the strong flush diaphragm made with 17-4 PH stainless steel, TPFAS is particularly suitable for pressure measurement where the media is with high viscosity (thick fluids, oils, rubber, pulps, chemical products, etc.) and small size diaphragm is required while internal measuring chamber transducers cannot be used.

The high thickness of the diapragm makes the product very reliable and suitable for heavy industrial application.

Internal state of the art electronics allows a wide range of current and voltage signal outputs, as well as the innovative “Digital Autozero” function is able to perform an easy and quick automatic zero adjustment after the installation, simply with the touch of a magnetic pen or by short circuiting two pins on the electrical connector.

Description

  • Ranges: from 0...25 to 0...600 bar
  • Output signal 4...20mA 2-wires / 0.1...5.1Vdc / 0.1...10.1Vdc / 0...5Vdc / 0...10Vdc / 1...5Vdc / 1...6Vdc / 1...10Vdc
  • Protection rating: IP65/IP67
  • Wetted parts: 17-4PH Stainless Steel
  • Miniature flush fitting stainless steel measuring diaphragm
  • Magnetic or External Autozero function
