MSI-MT Series Magnetostrictive Linear Position Sensor with Analog Output
The MSI-MT series is a rod-type, high-precision, absolute, non-contact magnetostrictive linear position sensor with a measuring range from 25 to 1750 mm.
Position measurement is performed using ring-type position magnets that move along the waveguide without physical contact. The sensor flange is made of high-quality stainless steel and designed for long-term operation in demanding industrial environments.
