| Linear Transducers with pulse-width modulation  Penny + Giles has developed a pulsewidth
modulation option for its ICT range
of contactless in-cylinder linear transducers.
The range, launched last year,
was designed for hostile conditions inside
mobile and static hydro-pneumatic actuators.
The new option provides further assurance, as the
digital signal of the PWM is more robust and less vulnerable
to noise than analogue voltage signals. The PWM
option produces a TTL-level compatible signal which has
a duty cycle proportional to transducer displacement.PENNY & GILES CONTROLS Tel. +44-1202-409409 • Fax +44-1202-409475 For SLI: enter 14442 at www.tim-info.com/ien |
