Linear Rod Type LS1 Series

Linear Rod Type LS1 Series

Position transducer, based on our NOVOPAD noncontacting inductive measurement technology. Provides direct, accurate measurement of travel for display or feedback applications.

The push rod is supported on both ends by metal glide bearings, allowing high lateral forces on the tip of the rod. The robust and compact housing design make the LS1 a reliable solution for the industrial environment.

A ball coupling enables a backlash and shear force free operation, even with perpendicular or angular misalignment between the transducer axis and the direction of movement.

The integrated signal processor with programmable end-points (Teach-in) function provides an absolute and proportional voltage or current output signal. The LS1 uses a non-contacting technology, and is maintenance and wear free. The transducers provide optimal reproducibility, resolution and linearity.

LS1 sensors can be exchanged without recalibration. Magnetic fields do not have any effect on the measurment signal.
