Not a sensor-controller extension.

Power supplies

  • PS2020 (2420062) eli-m-75d559684cc51453ffe276de Only for source configuration configuration-ef59e98edd09a24dcc4859f2: DT3001-U4-M-Cx; selected configuration must be matched before display.; Calculate continuous and startup current for the complete chain. Being listed does not guarantee enough current for every configuration; never substitute for a mains-powered controller supply.

Complementary products

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about our products and services

The measuring controller is integrated into the sensor housing. Power and an analog-output connection are still required; connector versions need the matching cable.

No. The catalogue distinguishes a 75 kHz analog-output update rate from a 5 kHz frequency response at −3 dB.

No. U8 has a 0.8 mm start offset, giving a 0.8–8.8 mm measurement interval and an 8 mm net span.

They identify target-material calibrations: A for aluminum and M for steel. Changing material requires a suitable calibration, not one universal metal characteristic.

No. Minimum target diameter is 48 mm for U2/U4 and 72 mm for U6/U8. Check material and distance as well.
