Case Histories

AMS22U5A1BHARL317 has been used in industrial processes such as carrying out distance measurements and controlling hydraulic systems. In the physical sciences, it has been heavily used to measure the angular displacement of an apparatus. It is also suited to continuously monitor movements in an automated system due to its high accuracy and stability.

Electrical Characteristics

The AMS22U5A1BHARL317 is a potentiometric position sensor that works on the principle that a varying voltage will develop between two end points and is proportional to the displacement. It has a linear response, in which the output voltage is linearly proportional to the displacement, as long as the sensor’s temperature remains constant. It requires a supply voltage of 12-24 V DC, and features a linearity deviation of 0.04%, an insulation resistance of >50MΩ, and a repeatability of 0.03%.

Inherent Characteristics

The AMS22U5A1BHARL317 has a robust aluminum alloy housing that is suitable for use in harsh environments. It has a temperature range from -20°C to +125°C and is resistant to humidity, dust, and vibration. Its main movement bearings are wear-resistant and have a working life that is millions of revolutions. The sensor outputs a 4 to 20 mA analog signal that is proportional to its displacement, as well as an optional 0.5 to 4.5 V digital signal. The resolution of the sensor can be adjusted via the internal potentiometer, given its +2V supply voltage.

Basic Installation

The AMS22U5A1BHARL317 consists of five components, which include the main sensor, contact roller, bracket, screw, and potentiometer. The sensor is mounted to the equipment with the bracket, and the contact roller is fitted with the screw. The output signal is adjustable with the potentiometer. It needs to be connected to the power supply, ensuring that the correct voltage is applied to the sensor. To ensure the accuracy of the sensor, it is important that the connection wiring is of the correct length.

Conclusion

The AMS22U5A1BHARL317 is a heavy-duty position sensor that offers reliable and repeatable measurements of linear distances, angular measurements, and torque levels. It has excellent electrical and inherent characteristics, making it suitable for both industrial and scientific applications. With its easy installation process and adjustable resolution, the AMS22U5A1BHARL317 is an ideal solution for a wide range of applications.
