CELESCO COMBINATION POSITION / VELOCITY TRANSDUCER
DESIGNED FOR EXTRA-LONG LIFE
The new rugged Celesco PT5AV is a combination position / velocity transducer designed for extra-long life in high acceleration / deceleration applications, such as die casting, drop testing, injection molding and crash testing.  This cable-extension device provides accurate measurement with a precision plastic-hybrid potentiometer for position feedback and a self-generating DC tachometer velocity signal that is roportional to the speed of the traveling cable.   the PT5AV features a sealed extruded anodized aluminum case and an optional high-strength, low-mass thermoplastic cable for high-velocity measurements.  Cable ranges available from 10 to 150 inches.  Position accuracy 0.25% to 0.15%, velocity linearit 0.10%.  Environmental suitability for NEMA 4 and IP65.

The PT5AV can be installed in minutes, function accurately without perfect cable alignment and fit into areas that are unsuitable for rod-type measurement devices.  The cable exit can be rotated relative to the mounting surface to provide four different cable exit orientations.  The PT5AV is available with 24-hour delivery.
