Read this manual before installing
and operating the BIW Transducer.
1.1
Proper application
The BIW transducer is intended to
be installed in a machine or system.
Together with a controller (PLC) or a
processor it comprises a position
measuring system and may only be
used for this purpose.
Unauthorized modifications and
non-permitted usage will result in
the loss of warranty and liability
claims.
1.2
Qualified personnel
This guide is intended for special-
ized personnel who will perform the
installation and setup of the system.
1.3
Use and inspection
The relevant safety regulations must
be followed when using the trans-
ducer system. In particular, steps
must be taken to ensure that should
the transducer system become de-
fective no hazards to persons or

property can result. This includes
the installation of additional safety
limit switches, emergency shutoff
switches and maintaining the per-
missible ambient conditions.
1.4
Scope
This guide applies to the model
BIW1-A/C/E/G transducer.
An overview of the various models
can be found in section 6 Versions
(indicated on product label) on
page 6.
Note:
For special versions, which
are indicated by an -SA_ _ _ des-
ignation in the part number, other
technical data may apply (affect-
ing calibration, wiring, dimensions
etc.).

2.1
Characteristics
BIW transducers feature:
–
High resolution and repeatability
–
Immunity to shock, vibration
and RF fields
–
Absolute output signal rising or
falling (selectable)
–
Guided sensor element
–
32 kHz sampling rate
–
Potential-free
2.2
Function
The BIW transducer contains a
sender/receiver sensor element and
an oscillator circuit, sealed in an
aluminum extruded housing. The
oscillator is attached to a rod which
in turn is attached to the moving
member of the machine whose
position is to be determined.
2
Function and Characteristics
The oscillator circuit is excited via
the sender/sensor element at a
sampling rate of 32 kHz, couples a
signal into the receiver sensor
element at the momentary position.
The position value is immediately
available on the output and is an
absolute signal.
