Description
The TURCK LM-2 Series Linear Magnetic Sensor is designed for position and movement tracking in industrial applications, with resolution down to 0.01 mm (10 µm), and push-pull or RS422 outputs. The IP67 rated, fully potted diecast zinc housing offers reliable protection and operation, with high vibration and shock resistance thanks to the non-contact technology this line is designed around. Higher ingress protection, up to IP68/IP69K, is available.
The compact design of the LM-2 Series features and installation depth of only 10 mm, installation height of 28 mm, and a magnetic band width of 10 mm. A wide operating temperature range of -20 to 80°C, reverse polarity protection, lateral misalignment tolerances up to +1 mm, and clear LED warning indicators when the magnetic field is too weak make this an flexible, intuitive measurement system solution.
