  • Page 40 Each limit switch sends its signal to the controller on a dedicated line. The controller then interrupts the motion avoiding that the positioner moves until the hard stop and gets damaged. PI positioners have mechanical, noncontact optical or Hall-effect limit switches. Load Capacity Maximum load in the vertical direction when the L-505.021200 is mounted horizontally.
  • Page 41 L505M0013EN ‒ 3/18/2020 Sensor resolution The sensor can be the critical element of position resolution so it may be necessary to specify the sensor resolution separately. Rotary encoder: Impulses per screw rotation. Linear encoder: Smallest motion still detected by the sensor system. Travel Range The maximum possible travel range is limited by the length of the drive screw.
