Specifications
Measurement Type Linear Displacement
Measuring Range 51 mm (2 in.) to 4445 mm (175 in.)
Connection Means Internal screw-type terminal block, Min. 26 AWG/Max. 16 AWG
Shock Rating 100 g/6 ms per IEC 68-2-27

*To maintain the IP68 rating, ensure that the connection at the conduit opening also meets
this standard.
Thread sealant should be used on the conduit opening to ensure protection against moisture
ingress.
Take care to prevent the possibility of internal condensation in the conduit from entering the
position sensor housing.
