FAQ

Question?
How do I mount the magnet for this BTL5 rod-style transducer?

Answer

For a rod-style sensor, a position magnet is required. This magnet is typically mounted to the moving part of the machine (e.g., the piston head inside a cylinder) and travels along the sensor rod without direct contact. Balluff offers various ring and U-magnets designed for different applications.

Question?
What is the output signal type for the ‘D’ interface in the model number?

Answer

The ‘D’ in the model number designates a digital Start/Stop interface. This is a time-based output protocol where the sensor sends out start and stop pulses, and the time difference between them is proportional to the magnet’s position. This requires a controller with a compatible interface card to interpret the signal.

Question?
Can the 5-meter cable on this sensor be shortened or extended?

Answer

While it is technically possible to shorten the cable, it is not recommended to extend it. Extending the cable can introduce signal noise and timing issues, potentially affecting the accuracy of the measurement. If a longer cable is needed, it is best to order a sensor with the required length from the manufacturer.
