Linear Rod Type TE1 Series

Linear Rod Type TE1 Series

Compact transducer with proven conductive-plastic technology and integrated signal processing.

The model with push rod and ball coupling enables a backlashand lateral force-free operation even with parallel and angular displacement of transducer and measuring direction. Characteristic for the robust design is the double-sided support of the actuating rod. For the spring-loaded type, this bearing allows high lateral forces on the tip of the rod which may occur during scanning of cams or wedge plates.

The linear transducer with integrated signal processing (4 ... 20 mA or 0 ... 10 V) is connected directly to the analog inputs of the controller.
