Automated Control and ASM have expanded the range of tape extension position sensors, with the introduction of the WB25 series.
The WB25’s highly flexible measurement tape is constructed out of a high grade stainless steel material that is 10 mm wide with only a 0.08 mm thickness. Due to its very smooth surface, the risk of icing is reduced. An integral tape dust wiper automatically cleans the tape as it is being retracted into the housing.
The angular sensing element consists of a magnetic encoder which translates the linear motion into an electrical signal. This extremely reliable magnetic encoder is highly shock and vibration resistant. This allows it to function under demanding environmental conditions. The rugged construction of the WB25 series provides for a long-life even under harsh operating conditions such as those found in off-highway vehicles and construction equipment. The space saving stainless tape design provides a small housing foot print with long measurement ranges
