The waveguide consists of a special

nickel-iron alloy with 0.7 mm O.D.

and 0.5 mm I.D.

A copper conductor is introducedthrough the length of this tube. The

start of measurement is initiated by a

short current pulse. This currentgenerates a circular magnetic fieldwhich rotates around the waveguide.

A permanent magnet at the point of

measurement is used as the marker

element, whose lines of field run atright angles to the electromagnetic

field.

In the area on the waveguide wherethe two fields intersect, a magneto-

strictive effect causes an elastic

deformation of the waveguide, which

propagates along the waveguide inboth directions in the form of a

mechanical wave.

The mechanical wave is converted

to an electrical signal by the signalconverter. The propagation time of

the mechanical wave is determined

by the position of the permanent

magnet and can be determined toresolutions down to 1 m.

Balluff transducers are therugged choice for useunder extreme ambient

conditions and overmeasuring distancesbetween 50mm (2") and4000mm (156").

Various output signalformats are available forintegration into yourspecific control system.

In addition, we offerprocessor cards with avariety of programming

functions, for generatingdigital or analog data forprocessing in your control.

Advantages:

Compared with traditionalposition feedback systems,

Balluff transducers offer thefollowing advantages:

Insensitive to shock,

vibration, temperature, contamination, moisture and electrical noise

Wear and maintenance free, thanks to non-

contact principle of operation

Absolute output signal, even after voltage

interruption, no re-homing of the machine necessary

High resolution, repeatability and linearity

Simple installation, marker element (magnet) needs no power

IP 67 per DIN 40 050

Pressure-rated to 8700 PSI, for internal hydraulic cylinder installation

Product

Introduction

The CE-Marking confirms

that our products meet therequirements of the ECDirective 89/336/EWG(EMC Directive) and theEMC Law. Testing done in

our EMC Laboratory, whichis accredited by the DATechfor ElectromagneticCompatibility Testing,

Balluff products have beenshown to meet the EMCrequirements of the GenericStandard EN 50 081-2(Emission) and EN 50 082-

2 (Noise Immunity). See thecorresponding user'smanual for detailedinformation.

Obtaining accurate positionfeedback is a critical part ofmany automation

processes. Withoutaccurate, reliablemeasurement feedback,quality and production

suffer. The Micropulseline of linear transducershas been providing a highlevel of linear measurementfor years.

Micropulse transducersincorporate some of themost advanced features

found in anymagnetostrictive lineartransducer.

Specialized Interfaces Electrical Options

The SSI (synchronous serial interface)

output interfaces with popular control

systems from manufacturers such as

Allen-Bradley, Delta Computer,

Siemens, Parker and many others.

Cable spans can be up to 400m withnoise-free operation. The internal

linearization of this interface makes it

ideal for applications requiring the

best accuracy available.

The quadrature output interfaces

directly to standard encoder inputs

(90 out of phase, A & B). This

configuration gives you more

interface options for connecting to

motion based systems. Operatingmodes can be either free-running or

synchronous (switch selectable)

depending on the control system's

requirements.

In many applications, avoiding equipment downtime is

paramount. With that in mind, Balluff designed the Micropulse

rod-style Z housing with a field replaceable electronics module.

This unique feature allows the entire electronics package to be

replaced in the field in a matter of minutes. The plug-and-play

benefits of Balluffs patented Auto-Tuning circuitry allow one

REM module to be used for any stroke length. Of particular

importance in hydraulic cylinder applications, the rod portion

of the transducer stays in place the fluid circuit remains intact.

Replacement Electronics modules are available for the following

output types:

Obtaining position feedback

or liquid level information is a

critical part of many

automation processes.

Without accurate, reliable

measurement feedback,

quality and productivity suffer.The Micropulse line of

linear transducers has been

providing accurate and

reliable linear measurement

for years. Now with the

Micropulse Ex, this proven

measurement technology is

available for use in the most

hazardous locations.

Micropulse Ex transducers

incorporate some of the most

advanced features found in

any magnetostrictive lineartransducer. Patented

auto-tuning electronics help

reduce maintenance and

repair cost. Auto-tuning also

compensates for any

performance changes

caused by temperature

fluctuations, allowing the

Micropulse to provide

consistent, stable accuracy

over a temperature range

of -40 to 185oF. Enhanced

wave-guide material provides

a higher level of resistance

to shock and vibration.

Inherently accurate, the

Micropulse Ex features

MicropulseP Style

Balluff magnets areavailable in captive or

floating styles. All BTL5magnets shown here canbe used on any BalluffMicropulse transducer.

Maximum resolution andrepeatability are achieved

using BTL5-F/M/N-2814-1Scaptive magnets.

The BTL5-P-3800-2magnet can be used with avertical offset from theupper surface of the

transducer body of0...4mm, and theBTL5-P-5500-2 permits adistance of 5...15mm. TheBTL5-P-4500-1 is an

electromagnet and requiresa supply voltage of 24V,

which can be turned on andoff for selective activation.

This allows multiplexoperation with multiplemagnets on a singletransducer, since only onemagnet is active at a time.

MicropulseR Style

Balluff magnets areavailable in captive orfloating styles. All BTL5magnets shown here canbe used on any Balluff

Micropulse transducer.Maximum resolution andrepeatability are achieved

usingBTL5-F/M/N-2814-1Scaptive magnets.

The BTL5-P-3800-2magnet can be used with

a vertical offset from theupper surface of thetransducer body of 0...4mm, and the BTL5-P-

5500-2 permits adistance of 5...15 mm.

The BTL5-P-4500-1 is an

electromagnet and

requires a supply voltageof 24V, which can beturned on and off forselective activation. This

allows multiplex operationwith multiple magnets ona single transducer, sinceonly one magnet is active

at a time.

Micropulse AT

An all-around performer

Introducing the new non-

contact linear positioning

transducer from Balluff.

The use of non-contactposition sensors is now an

affordable alternative to

wear-limited

potentiometers.

The new Micropulse AT

magnetostrictive transducer

has been specifically

designed to meet the

demands of cost-conscious

machine builders. Free

from the old mechanical

technology, yet compatiblewith standard products, the

round Micropulse AT design

sets new standards when it

comes to the price/

performance ratio!
