Position Measuring Systems
Balluff GmbH
The BMP series of intelligence position measuring systems from Balluff GmbH features displacement sensors that provide the absolute position signal for the stroke travel of a piston via IO-Link and information about the sensor status and the current ambient conditions.
The devices monitor the sensor temperature and the number of starts while issuing warnings when a configurable limit value is violated. An internal counter continuously monitors the operating hours over the entire life of the sensor since the last service and the last start-up. The integrated IO-Link interface also offers flexibility, enabling fast format changes through time-saving parameterization functions.
The magnetic, noncontact, wear-free sensors continuously detect the absolute position of a piston and are compatible with virtually all cylinder types. Applications include assembly, handling, and factory automation.
