The new drive and contactless position sensor transforms a relatively simple and low cost drive into a solution that reduces engineering and inventory overhead, is fast and easy to install, and delivers long service life due to its sealed housing. Standard swivel angles for the drive are 90, 180, and 270 degrees. Custom swivel angles are possible with a stop bracket accessory. At 6 bar pressure, the seven different sizes in the line deliver a torque range of .15 Nm to 20 Nm. Sizing software makes ordering the optimum unit for the application fast and accurate. The position sensor attaches to the drive via a single cable and three screws. During installation, personnel simply move the vane to the drive’s two positions and with a few clicks of the sensor’s push button both positions are located for the position sensing unit. Repetition accuracy is <0.0039 inches (0.1 mm). Through its push button, the position sensor can be designated PNP or NPN and NO or NC, which means that one part number covers all the different combinations.
