PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The WayCon SX300 Draw Wire Series is designed for use in combination with hydraulic cylinders and measuring the cylinder position. Especially designed for long stroke cylinders with pressurized housings to be flanged directly to the cylinder head. By giving feed back signals to a machine control unit, it is possible to control the position of a cylinder, to program specific movements or to manage synchronous movements of several cylinders.
- 3 - TECHNICAL DATA TRANSDUCER Measurement range* 10 m, 15 m Temperature range -20...+70 °C Circumference rope drum 568.9 mm Linearity ±0.05 % (depending on the used encoder) Pressure port Minimess 1620 Hydraulic fluid only non-hazardous fluids (non-flammable, non-toxic), no gaseous media Operational pressure 30 MPa (300 bar)
- 6 - INSTALLATION The wire fixation unit has to be screwed into the piston of the cylinder and locked with counternut. Note: use screw locking device. If it is not possible to work through the cylinder head bore, you have to take off the cylinder head (please refer to the cylinder manual).
