Magnetostrictive Cylinder Position Sensor analog output method
The MH series Magnetostrictive Cylinder Position Sensor has a built-in 16-bit D/A converter. It can accurately convert the absolute position of the vernier magnetic ring into a standard 4-20mA current signal or other signals in real time. The output signal has a linear relationship with the effective range. The zero point, full scale and positive and negative directions can be set by a screwdriver 100% according to the needs of on-site use. The output standard analog signal can be directly output to the PLC control module (such as Siemens 331 module) or other instruments.

Magnetostrictive Cylinder Position Sensor installation
MH series pressure-resistant outer tube, stainless steel electronic warehouse, specially designed for the use of hydraulic systems. Built into the hydraulic cylinder. Withstand pressure up to 35MPa continuous (70MPa peak).
Installation Notes:
To install the sensor housing, M5 DIN913 grub screws are required. The sensor can only be fixed in the direction of the axis. Since the screw can only contact the housing, the maximum torque to the screw can only be 1Nm. Otherwise the sensor housing will be damaged. And you need to remove the glue (such as Loctite Blue) to apply and seal the installed fixing sleeve screws.
Installation Precautions:
- Cut off all sensor connections during welding!
- Do not connect the ground terminal to the piston rod or the bottom of the cylinder.
- If there are sensors inside the cylinder block, do not weld any part of the cylinder block.
- If there are sensors inside the cylinder, do not weld near the cylinder.
- Any place in contact with the welding machine may generate current or voltage. This is caused by the lubrication of the isolation bearing or the sliding part of the plastic part. In this case, the same consequences may be caused.

FAQ
What is hydrostatic level transmitter?
Hydrostatic level transmitter is actually a type of pressure transmitter. Hydrostatic level transmitter is the application of pressure transmitter to liquid level measurement. The submersible Hydostatic pressure level transmitter is based on the principle that the measured liquid static pressure is proportional to the height of the liquid. Piezoresistive effect using diffused silicon or ceramic sensitive elements. Convert static pressure into electrical signal. After temperature compensation and linear correction. Convert to 4-20mADC standard current signal output. In order to achieve liquid level measurement.
What is magnetostrictive transducer?
Magnetostrictive liquid level transmitter is a kind of liquid level sensor. But it uses the principle of magnetostrictive operation internally. And combines modern electronic technology to measure the time value between pulse waves to achieve the purpose of accurately measuring the liquid level . The magnetostrictive liquid level meter works with waveguide pulses. During the work, the measured displacement is determined by measuring the time of the start pulse and the end pulse, so the measurement accuracy is high.
How do you measure pressure using a level transmitter?
Usually we measure the liquid level by measuring the pressure.
When the liquid level transmitter is put into a certain depth in the measured liquid, the pressure formula of the sensor facing the liquid surface is: Ρ = ρ.g.H + Po. In the formula:
P: the pressure on the liquid face of the transmitter
Ρ: measured liquid density
G: local gravity acceleration
Po: atmospheric pressure on the liquid surface
H: Depth of transmitter into liquid
At the same time, the pressure of the liquid is introduced into the positive pressure chamber of the sensor through the air-conducting stainless steel. Then connect the atmospheric pressure Po on the liquid surface to the negative pressure chamber of the sensor. To offset Po on the back of the sensor, the pressure measured by the sensor is: ρ.g.H. Obviously, by measuring the pressure P, the liquid level depth can be obtained.
Of course, if the liquid level is measured, the pressure value can also be converted.
