Technical Frequently Asked Questions
What can be connected to the TM1 analog threaded flange transducer?
It can be connected to Novotechnik M12 connectors and cables and Novotechnik linear sensor positioners (magnets and cursors).
How do I order the TM1 analog threaded flange transducer?
The order code has six fields: stroke (mm), mechanical version, power supply, signal, characteristic, and connection. For example, TM1-0500-306-851-104 is the version with an electrical range of 500 mm, M18x1.5 threaded flange, 24 VDC power supply, 0.25–4.75 V output, upward characteristic as seen from the flange, and a 4-pole M12x1 connector. All the options for each field are available in the order code configurator on this page.
Under what conditions does the TM1 analog threaded flange transducer operate?
Operating temperature: -40 … +105 °C. Protection: IP67.
