Suitable for the position control of valves and flaps, the RI-DSU35 series 360° inductive sensors implement Turck's inductive resonant circuit measuring principle in a dual sensor design for analog angle measuring on rotary actuators and valves. Unlike with the conventional dual sensor, the user can select the switch points as required from the entire rotation range from 0 to 360°. This eliminates the need for any time consuming setting and readjustment of the actuating element. The series is planned to have an output signal from 0-10V or 4-20 mA. Intrinsically safe devices with a 4-20 mA output signal are planned for explosion hazardous areas up to zones 1 and 21. The process connection on all modules is implemented via an easily accessible terminal chamber or standard M12x1 male connector. The company's RI sensors do not detect angle positions with a magnetic positioning element, but by means of an inductive resonance coupling circuit. This makes the sensor absolutely immune to magnetic fields, such as those generated by large motors. Due to their robust design, sealing and high degree of protection, the sensors are also able to supply precise signals over long operating periods.
