Magnetic distortion linear displacement sensor | Positioning sensor for harsh environments
Low-head and robust sensor for hydraulic cylinders. A robust sensor that withstands high pressure! Operating temperature up to 100°C.
The Temposonics GB series is a magnetostrictive linear displacement sensor that utilizes the characteristics of specially designed magnetostrictive detection elements (magnetostrictive wires) for position measurement. The interaction of two magnetic fields within the sensor instantaneously induces a torsional pulse in the magnetostrictive wire. One magnetic field is generated by a position magnet that moves along a sensor rod equipped with the magnetostrictive wire, while the other magnetic field is produced by a current pulse applied to the magnetostrictive wire. <Reasons for Selection> - Flat and compact housing - Sensors that can withstand high pressures up to 800 bar - Operating temperature: up to +100°C *For any questions regarding "Specifications for each communication interface," please feel free to download the catalog or contact us.

Temposonics introduced a non-contact, high-precision, and cost-effective non-contact absolute sensor method to the market in the early 1970s, using the magnetostrictive effect (Weidmann effect) for position measurement, which had previously been dominated by incremental methods. As a leading company in magnetostrictive sensors, we are committed to improving accuracy as position sensors, engaging in research and development, and enhancing quality to meet the needs of the industrial sector. Our sensors are increasingly being adopted not only as linear sensors to replace rotary encoders, linear encoders, and potentiometers but also in various industries such as hydraulics, pneumatics, water pressure, injection molding, welding, printing, textiles, construction machinery, wind power generation, metal processing, as well as in disaster prevention sensors like landslide sensors and bridge sensors. Temposonics will continue to develop further and strive day and night to be of service as a leading company in industrial sensors.
