Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
HG increases the maximum wire acceleration from approximately 25g to 100g. It also changes wire forces: maximum extension force rises from approximately 3.5 to 17 N, and minimum retraction force from approximately 1.5 to 10 N.
The table lists 50, 150 and 250 mm ranges with a potentiometer output and a 1 m integral axial cable. HG versions remain separate configurations even where their output type and range match.
The catalogue specifies a mounting flange rotatable through 180° or 360°. The measuring wire attaches through an M4 threaded bolt. Follow the installation drawing.
It specifies IP65 and −20 to +80°C operation. Select the wire acceleration limit separately for the standard or HG version.
The listed models use potentiometers and a 1 m integral axial cable. They require suitable potentiometric acquisition electronics rather than only a digital communication input.
