Balluff Micropulse TA12 explosion-proof linear position transducer
Balluff’s Micropulse TA12 explosion-proof linear position transducer now has IECEx hazardous area approval rating, in addition to existing ATEX and North American approvals, expanding the acceptability for the Balluff TA12 transducer for worldwide use in applications where hazardous gases and/or dusts are present.
The Micropulse TA12 is a non-contact magnetostrictive linear position sensor with a compact, explosion-proof housing. It is specifically designed for continuous feedback on hydraulically and pneumatically actuated valves for oil and gas refining, storage, transport and handling.
Non-contact, wear-free magnetostrictive technology ensures long life and MTBF for maximum production uptime. If the unit does require service, the TA12 incorporates its electronics and sensing hardware in a Rapid Replacement Module (RRM) that allows fast field repairs by the customer. With the RRM, there is no need to break the hydraulic seal. This eliminates fluid spillage and the need to bleed air from the hydraulic system after repair. The Balluff Rapid Replacement Module allows a user to get production up and running quickly in the event that repair is necessary.
The Micropulse TA12 offers a wide array of control signal interface options, including analog voltage and current, start/stop pulse digital, synchronous serial digital, digital quadrature, and digital fieldbuses such as Profibus and CANbus.
