Gemco 955A BRIK Gen III

The 955A BRIK Gen III is an accurate

programmable, auto-tuning, non-contact, linear

displacement transducer in an economical, low

profile package. The transducer utilizes our field

proven magnetostrictive technology to give absolute

position, repeatable to .006% of the programmable

sensing distance.

The streamlined anodized aluminum extrusion

houses the sensing element and electronics. The

magnet moves over the sensing element that

determines the position and converts it to an analog

output. It can be ordered with a 0 to 10 VDC or

4 to 20mA output.

The 955A BRIK Gen III has a few truly unique

features. The first one is the LDT’s auto-tuning

capability, the ability to sense a magnet other than

the standard slide magnet and adjust its signal

strength accordingly. Another feature is the analog

output is programmable over the entire active

stroke length. The active stroke area of the LDT

lies between the Null and Dead zones. There is

a diagnostic LED located at the connector end of

the probe that remains green while a good magnet

signal is present and when the magnet is in the

programmed stroke 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 and the output goes to 0 volts on

voltage output units, or 4mA on current output

units when there is no magnet present or when the

magnet is out of the sensing area.

The unit can easily be changed in the field from a

0 - 10 VDC to a 10 - 0 VDC or 4 - 20mA to a

20 - 4mA . As an added feature, the optional

differential analog output allows the distance

between two magnets to be measured.

The 955A BRIK is designed for applications where

economical continuous feedback is necessary. The

sensor can be a cost effective replacement to limit

switches, proximity sensors, linear potentiometers

and LVDT’s. Applications include presses,

blow molding, injection molding, extrusion, roll

positioning, dancer control and many more.
