Installation
Before installing the instrument, read the following warnings:
a) Connect the instrument strictly following the instructions of the manual.
b) It is the responsibility of the user to check, before using, the correct settings of the parameters of the
instrument to avoid damage to persons or things.
c) The instrument CANNOT function in a dangerous environment (inflammable or explosive).
Description
MAT2 is an absolute position transducer for linear measures without contact with a measure range up to 40
meters: it has to be combined with the absolute magnetic band PA50/10.
Running on the band, the sensor produces a signal which, properly amplified and worked out, is changed into
an absolute position signal.
Transducer MAT2 integrates in the same device a sensor sensible to magnetic fields, an electronic signals
conversion circuit and an output stage. The most importan feature is that this sensor always keeps the quota,
it means that is possible to move the sensor also without power supply and without loosing the quota. There
are available two inputs to define the zero-setting and the direction.
The data exchanging is made through protocol SSI with format Gray or Binary.
Magnetic Band PA50/10: the band consists of a plastic-ferrite strip carried by a stainless steel band with two
magnetic traces, one with alternate poles of 5 mm pitch, the other with an univocal binary.
This system is suitable for a large number of applications within industry: guides and linear transmission
members, pneumatic and oil-pressure cylin-ders, handling systems, automatic shearers, etc.: in any
situations where is necessary an absolute, accurate and repeatable measure without contact and wear-proof.
It can goes with display F1XSSI (reading range -99999, +999999) with interface SSI .
