Temposonics - ATI Systems

1 Temposonics Absolute, Non-Contact Position SensorsG-SeriesAnalog RedundantTemposonics GT2 and GT3 Measuring length 50 - 1500 mmMagnetostriction The absolute Temposonics linearposition sensors are based on theMTS developed magnetostrictivemeasurement principle. That combi-nes various magneto-mechanicaleffects and uses the physical hightprecise speed-measurement of anultrasonic wave (torsion pulse in itssensor element) for position detec-ting. sensor integrated signal proces-sing transforms the measurementsdirectly into market standard contactless principle - an exter-nal movable magnet marks the posi-tion - eliminates the wear, noise anderroneous signal problems and gua-rantees the best durability withoutany factorThe extremely robust sensor , ideal forcontinuous operation under harshestindustrial conditions is completelymodular in mechanic and electronicdesign.

2 A profile or rod-shaped sensor hou-sing protects the sensing element inwhich gives rise to the measurementsignal. The sensor head accommodates thecomplete modular electronic interfacewith active signal encapsulation ensures highoperating safety and optimum EMCprotection. The position transmitter, a perma-nent magnet - fixed at the mobilemachine part - drives contactlesslyover the sensor 's stroke and startsmeasuring through the housing wall. Up to 3 totally separated, independent measuring Systems in 1 housing Linear Absolute Measurement Contactless Sensing with Highest Durability Superior Accuracy: Linearity better 0,02 % Repeatability 0,001 % Direct Analog Output Compact design with a 10 mm measuring rod and standard mountingRedundancy for enhanced safetyI 2 ITemposonics-GT2+GT3 Analog MTS Sensors Temposonics G-Series RedundantThe G-Series Redundant sensor is designed for applications with high safety requirements.

3 Two or three measuring Systems , which work totally independent, are installed inside the compact sensor housing. Each measuring system contains its own canalwith sensor element, evaluation electronics, output signal, separated power supply, connector and sensor elements are integrated in one pressure proofed high-grade steel rod. Rod and fixing flange feature the approved standard dimensions with 10 mm dia-meter and M18x 1,5 winding. That qualifies the redundant sensor for measuring linear movements of control valves, linear drives, fluid cylinders and particular applications with safety relevant functions benefit from a redundant position measurement:- Valves and drives at power plants- Pitch settings at water- or wind turbines or at marine propellers- Ship control Systems and outputTemposonics G-Series with analog outputs provide direct analog outputs inclu-ding voltage and current, forward or reverse acting.

4 All outputs allow fulladjustment of Null and Span setpoints (minimum range 50 mm between setpo-ints) inside the active electrical strokelength. Since the outputs are direct, nosignal conditioning electronics are needed when interfacing with controllers ormeters. Active stroke length0 %100 %DisplacementV / mASensor field programmingTemposonics G-Series sensors are preconfigured at the factory by model codedesignation. If needed, MTS offers different external service tools for modifyingsensor parameters inside the active electrical stroke(minimum 50 mm bet-ween setpoints) via the standard connection cable. There is no need to open thesensors electronics. Following tools are available:1. Hand-Programmer G-Analogfor setups of measuring length inside the ordered output by pushing PC-Programmer G-AnalogThis hardware converter is required to communicate via serial port of WindowPC to the sensor .
