with a pressure resistant stainless steel flange and sensing rod. They are suitable in all fluid power cylinders and externally in
all applications where space is a problem. Position measurement is via ring or U-magnets travelling along the sensing rod without any mechanical
contact.
4.3.1 Mounting distances
Active measuring range
The technical data of each sensor is checked as well as documented
and the active stroke length (useful electrical stroke) with its start
and end position is adjusted during final inspection and testing
(see Fig. 11).
NOTICE
On all sensors, the areas left and right of the active stroke length
are provided for mounting and damping of the measuring signal.
They should not be used for measurement, but the active stroke
length can be exceeded without problem.
Mechanical zero
To ensure that the entire measuring range can be used electrically,
the position magnet must be mounted mechanically as follows:

4.3.2 Installation of RH
Installation of a rod-style sensor
The rod-style version has been developed for direct stroke
measurement in a fluid cylinder.
– Mounted on the bottom of the piston, the ring magnet travels
over the rod contactlessly and marks the position exactly through
the rod wall.
– Inside the pressure-resistant sensor housing immerging into the
open piston rod, the basic sensor is mounted by means of only
two screws. It is the only part that needs replacing if servicing is
required, i.e. the hydraulic circuit remains closed.
NOTICE
After re-installing, securing the basic sensor screws, e.g. using
Loctite 243, is mandatory.
Basic sensor
The electronics head with sensing
element can be replaced via two M4
screws with a 2.5 mm hexagonal
recess, max. tightening torque 1.3 Nm
Pressure-resistant
sensor housing
In the event of servicing,
the rod with the flange
remains in the cylinder.

Multi-position measurement
The minimum distance between the magnets is 75 mm (3 in.).
