Precision Sensor,

non-contacting

Series FTI 10

The inductive precision sensor

FTI is used to transform short
linear travel paths into ana-
logue electrical signals using a
differential transformer with a
movable core.

The core is located on a gau-

ging pin which is pressed
against the measured object
by an integrated spring. The
sensor is supplied with direct

The precision sensor is avail-

able in protection class IP50,
optionally IP67, and due to its
completely encapsulated
housing and temperature-
compensating properties of its
control-loop coil, it can be
used under rough environ-
mental operating conditions.
