Description
Displacement Measuring System Model KD-2446 is a non-contact, analog proximity measuring
system. The system operates on a traditional Colpitts oscillator circuit. This low-cost, easy-to-use
system can be utilized for precision static and dynamic measurements of conductive targets.
The KD-2446 system consists of two subassemblies: sensor with integrated cable, and signal
conditioning electronics module. Two standard sensor configurations are available, the 9C and
the 5CM. Selected performance data and dimensions for these two sensors are shown in the
data sheet at www.kamansensors.com. Additional sensor configurations are available upon
request.
