R-Series EtherCAT Absolute Non-Contact Position Sensor

Brand: Temposonics an Amphenol Company
Does not ship to Virginia, United States
The sensor fulfils the requirements of the EtherCAT field-bus and can be connected as a slave to this bus system.

EtherCAT is an open field-bus system which is based on the EtherNet technology (IEEE 802.3) with a high data rate, short response time and a good real-time performance, it is standardized in the IEC/PAS 62407 and it is part of the ISO 15745-4.

The integration in the IEC 61158, IEC 61784 and IEC 61800-7 is in the way. It is very easy to implement the Temposonics® sensor with the EtherCAT interface into an EtherCAT field-bus system.

The System-Manager (e.g. TwinCAT from Beckoff) gets all the parameters of the sensor from the XML-file, which part of the delivery. There are no settings on the sensor.

The measurement can be synchronized by the PLC, by switching the sensor to the “distributed clock mode” (1 to 5 magnets only).
Features
  • Rugged industrial sensor
  • Linear and absolute measurement
  • LEDs for sensor diagnostics
  • Non-contact sensing with highest durability
  • Direct EtherCAT output
  • Position velocity with 5 magnets
  • Positions with up to 20 magnets
