Camille Bauer Kinax HW730 hollow-shaft angle transducer

The Camille Bauer Kinax HW730 is a hollow-shaft angle transducer with Modbus/TCP and PoE.

Suitable for incorporation in complex control schemes, the Kinax HW370 angular position transducers have a Modbus TCP/IP (IEC 61158) 100BaseTX Ethernet (PoE) interface and utilise an 8-pole spring-type terminal block or 4-pole solid cable gland to connect to Cat-5 wiring. They are dustproof and waterproof according to IP67/IP69K and are also suitable for marine service applications according to GL (German Lloyd) requirements. They are designed to be used in challenging environments and offer high vibration and shock resistance in accordance with IEC 60068-2-6.

The mechanism for angle measurement is capacitive, utilising an accurately dimensioned rotatable vane from 0 to 360° in clockwise or anticlockwise mode, with a 14-bit resolution (absolute precision of ±0.15°), and has a low starting torque of only 0.5 Nm. Parameterisation and data acquisition is facilitated via Camille Bauer CB PC Manager software, included in the package.

The Kinax HW370 transducers are supplied in rugged anodised aluminium housings and are capable of accommodating up to 30 mm shaft extensions.
