Nominal overall length of the displacement sensor system
The nominal system length (N) refers to the length of the components displacement sensor (P) and
extension cable (L). The optional extension cable is required whenever the length of the displacement
sensor is 0.5 m or 1.0 m and with the help of the additional extension cable must be extended to the
nominal system length of 5 m, 10 m or 25 m.
If the displacement sensor already has the nominal system length, no additional extension cable is
required. In this case, the displacement sensor system consists only of the components displacement
sensor and driver.
Example: correct installation for a nominal length N of 5 m:
P = 0,5 m
L = 4,5 m
P+L = 5,0 m = N
Example of incorrect installation for a nominal length N of 5 m:
P = 0,5 m L = 4,0 m P+L = 4,5 m
≠
N
It should be N = 5.0 m. The nominal overall length has not been complied with.
