Displacement transducer measures round
corners
According to RDP Electronics, accurately measuring the displacement from a fixed point couldn't be easier than with its DWT transducer.
According to RDP Electronics, accurately measuring the displacement from a fixed point couldn't be easier than with its DWT transducer Based on the draw-wire principle, the DWT transducer body is simply bolted to the point of reference and the draw wire extended and attached to the moving part of the system
Measurements can be made point-to-point or round corners.
The plastic-coated draw wire can measure displacements from a maximum of 600mm up to 3.5m with a high degree of accuracy, and special versions are available for measurement ranges up to 100mm or 7.5m.
DWT is available in two housing designs; standard for general internal use and a sealed housing offering a greater degree of environmental protection.
The transducers also offer a variety of outputs including 4-20mA and 0-10V DC.
An LCD is available as an option. Request a free brochure from RDP Electronics ...
