8. ELECTRONIC POSITION TRANSMITTER "ESR"
This actuator can also be equipped with an electronic position
transmitter. It is installed in the linear actuator as an additional
module in combination with a special switching and signal-
ling unit [114]. The electronic non-contact position transmitter
converts a rotary motion into an output signal. This output
signal is a DC current of 4 ... 20 mA for two-wire connection. A
special switching and signalling unit converts the axial motion
of the actuator connecting rod into a rotary motion. It features
a crown wheel which engages in the outer gear wheel of the
electronic position transmitter.
.
The electronic position transmitter is protected against re-
verse polarity.
It is designed for direct electrical connection via
two- wire connection with an output current of 4 ... 20 mA.

8.1 Functional principle of the electronic position transmitter
The rotary motion generated by the switching and signalling unit is transmitted by the gear wheel to a rotor inside
the electronic position transmitter. The rotor position is measured with a capacitive pick-up system.
Ten stator segments (see gure 24) are excited using successive pulses (2). The phase relationship of the signal
– capacitively decoupled from the rotor – depends on the rotation angle. The signal is amplied (4) and is
converted via the phase comparator (5) and the voltage/current converter (6) into an output current proportional
to the rotation angle.
