First inductive miniature linear displacement sensor for a measuring range from 50 to 200 mm using the interference-free resonant circuit measuring principle
The first fail-safe miniature linear displacement sensor for a measuring range of 50 to 200 mm has been presented by Turck. The LI-Q17 doesn't work with a magnetic locator, but with the resonant circuit measuring principle, where an object's position is detected via an inductive oscillating system, consisting of a condenser and a coil. Thus, the LI-Q17 that combines all the positive qualities of customary measuring systems in one solution without having the disadvantages.
