Application
The Temposonics sensor is used for measurement and conversion
®
of the length (position) variable in the field of automated system and
mechanical engineering.
Principle of operation and system construction
For position measurement, the absolute, linear Temposonics
sensors make use of the properties offered by the specially designed
magnetostrictive waveguide. Inside the sensor a torsional strain pulse
is induced in the waveguide by momentary interaction of two magnet-
ic fields. The interaction between these two magnetic fields produc-
es a strain pulse, which is detected by the electronics at the head of
the sensor. One field is produced by a moving position magnet, which
travels along the sensor rod with the waveguide inside. The other field
is generated by a current pulse applied to the waveguide. The position
of the moving magnet is determined precisely by measuring the time
elapsed between the application of the current pulse and the arrival
of the strain pulse at the sensor head. The result is a reliable position
measurement with high accuracy and repeatability.

Modular mechanical and electronic construction
– The sensor housing protects the sensor element.
– The sensor electronics housing, a rugged aluminum
construction, contains the complete electronic interface with
active signal conditioning.
– The external position magnet is a permanent magnet. Mounted
on the mobile machine part, it travels along the sensing element and
triggers the measurement through the housing wall.
– Depending on the type, the sensor is connected to the controller via a plug.
– The sensor can be connected directly to a control system.
Its electronics generates a strictly position-proportional signal
output between zero and end position.
