ASM has launched the WB61 tape extension sensor providing up to 4000mm measurement range.
Due to the design of the sensor and the strength of the stainless steel tape they can be found in environments and areas where other sensors struggle to survive, such as hard to reach areas where directional changing pulleys are used or where temperature extremes cause problems such as icing.
The WB61 is made from a quality moulded housing which enables lower construction costs for a rugged sensor that meets a high sealing level of IP67/69K (operational).
The WB61 is also available with a choice of three analogue and three digital outputs (SSI, CANopen or CAN J1939) a linearity of /- 0.10% with the option of redundant outputs.
It is suited for installation on cranes, excavators, forklift trucks, hoists and access platforms.
Features overview:
- Measurement range up to 4000 mm.
- Protection class IP67/IP69K.
- Stainless steel measuring tape.
- Analogue output.
