POSITION INDICATOR AIDS FLEXIBLE ASSEMBLY
1 min read
A Versatile IP65/67 direct drive electronic position indicator offers all the usability and accuracy of its forerunners plus added versatility and convenience in a single compact specification, it is claimed.
The DD51-E is a battery powered direct drive unit which can be used on machine shafts in any position to provide a reading of the absolute or incremental positioning of a machine component. According to Elesa UK, the indicator is therefore suited to machines with rotating shafts such as roll handling such as refinishing, paper, card and other packaging production, printing and incremental feed equipment, where accurate rotation indexing is essential.
The DD51-E incorporates a 5 year life lithium battery and may be programmed to display linear measurements in metric or imperial - or angular measurement in degrees and to allow choice of reading after one revolution of the shaft, in addition the display orientation is user selectable to suit equipment layout. This versatility obviates the need to specify exact ratios, units and display parameters at the time of ordering. It also allows subsequent re-programming if the indicator is reallocated to new equipment or incorporated in a different process.
