Tailored Position Sensor for Mobile Machines
The Temposonics® MH5 is the new sensor generation for position
measurment in mobile machinery!
It is specially developed for large-scale applications. For high
volume projects it offers all advantages of magnetostrictive sensor
technology at a competitive rate. The new InterConnection Plug
simplifies the cylinder installation and ensures the safe connection
of the sensor.
The MH5 perfectly fulfills the needs of mobile machinery for:
- a position sensor for large-scale applications
- at a competitive price
- for direct, reliable and maintenance-free stroke measurement
inside the hydraulic cylinder
The main features are:
- 12 / 24 VDC power supply
- Current/voltage output
- 125 up to 1450 mm stroke range
- 10 mm pressure resistant rod
- 350 bar operating pressure, 450 bar peak
- 100 g single shock, 20 g vibration rating
- EMC tested to ISO 14982
- Temposonics® M12 connector system (IP69k) with the New
InterConnection Plug
Temposonics® Connector System
-
Advantages
- Easy and fast integration of position sensors into the hydraulic
cylinder
- Simple click-on mounting without the need of tool
- Rugged metal housing protection IP69K
- Prefabricated for high operating safety
- Minimum construction height
- Connection of the position sensor using M12x1 connector
Position Sensors for SIL2 Applications
-
Temposonics® position sensors meet the requirements of Safety
Integrity Level 2 (SIL2) to EN 61508 and therewith also the
requirements of Performance Level d to EN 13849-1. This means they
are approved for safety functions on mobile and stationary machines.
They support the functional safety and contribute to meeting the
safety targets of the entire machine.
Hall-Effect Sensor
- The new HE linear position sensor features hall-effect, non-contact technology and is designed to cover stroke length measurement ranges from 100 to 400 mm. Multiple mechanical packages are available to allow installation into the hydraulic cylinder through internal methods. When installed, there is virtually no dead zone and the full hydraulic stroke range will be shown completely as an electrical output. The M12 connection system (IP69K) simplifies installation and elimantes miswiring, while provided sealing and protection from high pressure spray. Ideal for maintenance free applications, the robust sensor delivers a stable output under the harshest EMI conditions and provides industry leading repeability to support critical control functions.
Temposonics® C-Series Position Sensors
-
Compact construction, a reasonable price for large-series
production, complete functionality and modularity: the C-Series
position trandsducers provide persuading solutions for all
requirements of the OEM-market.
C-Series OEM-Sensor

C-Series M1 Sensor
Level Plus® Liquid Level Gauges
-
Level Plus liquid level transmitters utilize the inherent advantages
of magnetostrictive technology to provide the product level,
interface level, and temperature measurement of a tank from one
process opening. Accurately measuring multiple process variables
from one opening lowers the installed costs of adding feedback to a
storage tank or process vessel.

Wind Energy Growth Market
Wind energy is on the rise, reaching a power output of nearly 57,000
Megawatts in 2007 and continuing to increase. However, we must
continue to focus on ways to build, test, deliver, and maintain wind
turbines more effectively. MTS Systems can help by delivering
position sensor technology that improves the energy efficiency of
the turbines while providing greater safety and reducing maintenance
costs.
A Green Future...
The call for reducing greenhouse gas emissions is growing throughout
the world. Wind power has demonstrated great potential satisfying
energy demand with a clean, safe and highly-efficient energy source.
At the same time, there is increasing demand for reliable and rugged
components because wind turbines are subjected to tremendous
aerodynamic forces and continuously changing wind conditions.
…with Temposonics
Temposonics position sensors are reliable, non-contact and
maintenance-free. The R-Series sensor, for example, measure position
and velocity with high accuracy and speed thanks to:
• High performance, integrated electronics
• IP 67 sealing
• Linearity <± 0.01% full stroke
• Repeatability <± 0.001% full stroke
• Resolution down to 1 micron
• Update time up to 10 kHz
• Operating temperature -40 °C (-40 °F) to 75 °C (167 °F)
