955S Smart BRIK
Magnetostrictive LDT
In A Low Profile Package
The 955S Smart BRIK is an accurate, programmable
zero and span, auto-tuning, non-contact linear position
sensor in an economical, low profile package. The sensor
utilizes our field proven magnetostrictive technology to
give absolute position, repeatable to .01% of the sensing
distance. The 955S Smart BRIK is a cost effective linear
sensing solution.
The streamlined anodized aluminum extrusion houses the
sensing element and electronics. The magnet slide moves
over the sensing element that determines the position
and converts it to a readable output. The 955S Smart
BRIK is a self-contained unit and does not have a can
or head assembly. All of the electronics are incorporated
in the transducer which is less than one inch tall. Units
can be ordered in span lengths up to 180 inches long
in 0.1 inch increments. The magnet slide is designed to
move effortlessly along the transducer in guide tracks or
a floating magnet assembly can be positioned above the
unit.
A variety of hardware is available for attaching the magnet
slide to the moving portion of the process. The transducer
can be mounted vertically or horizontally using our
mounting feet which slide on the lower part of the extrusion
and clamp down when tightened. This packaging provides
a compact and easy method of mounting for machine
builders.
The transducer can be ordered with 0 to 10 VDC, 4 to
20mA, or -10 to 10 VDC output. All units are provided
with a standard quick disconnect connector. A unique
feature is the diagnostic LED that remains green when
a good magnet signal is present and when in the active
programmed area. The LED turns yellow when the magnet
is out of the programmed active range but still within the
active stroke area. The LED turns red when there is no
magnet present or the magnet assembly is out of the
sensing area.
The 955S Smart BRIK is designed for applications where
economical continuous feedback is necessary. The sensor
can be a cost effective replacement to limit and proximity
sensors and linear potentiometers. Applications include
presses, blow molding, injection molding, extruding, roll
positioning and many more.
As an added benefit, the 955S is FM approved for Class
I, Div 2, Groups A, B, C, D applications when installed
and wired per drawing E0241100 as shown in the manual.
If your application does not require FM Class I, Div 2
approval, wire the 955S using a standard 4 pin Euro
cordset from Ametek or others.
