Rail Speed Sensor Gel 2477








General Information

Description
  • Rail speed sensor based on magnetic measurement principle
  • Maintenance- and wear-free operation due to non-contact measurement of rotation
  • Suitable for ferromagnetic target wheels
  • Safe detection of slow rotation from 0 Hz without pulse loss and for high-speed rotation up to 25 kHz
  • Two channels shifted by 90° provide the direction of rotation
  • Robust and compact stainless steel housing suitable for harsh application
  • Simple flange mounting
  • Customized cable fittings

Features
  • Measuring range 0 Hz to 25 kHz
  • High resolution due to pulse multiplier
  • Temperature range -40 °C to +120 °C
  • Protection class IP 68
  • Type test according to EN 50155
Fields of Application
  • Rail vehicles
  • - Traction control
    - Anti-slip
    - Motor speed
  • Automation
  • - Measurement of speed and positions at gears, motors and roller
Output signals
  • 2-channel square-wave signals, 90°-shifted, inversed signals
