Variable Reluctance Sensors - High Temperature
 

  High Temperature Variable Reluctance Sensors Brochure

 

Motion Sensors (MSI) High Temperature sensors were designed to operate reliably in high temperature environments for long periods of time. These sensors can easily withstand repeated thermocycling and feature an operating temperature range of -450°F to +850°F and +1000°F intermittently. A flexible stainless steel braided sheath that can withstand exposure to +1000°F protects signal lead wires. Special materials and construction prevent damage from physical abuse and thermal shock. In addition, all High Temperature magnetic sensors are hermetically sealed.


Product Specifications

In addition to the models specified, MSI can make custom High Temperature VR sensors in other lengths, diameters, configurations, mounting threads (e.g., metric) as well as with different operating specifications and options like pigtail leads, NPT threads for explosion proof applications, etc. to satisfy special requirements. If you do not see a sensor that meets your needs, please contact us and we would be happy to make a product that meets your specifications.

Standard Features and Specifications

  • Variable Reluctance (VR) or inductive type (no internal magnet).
  • Hermetically sealed, heli-arc welded construction
  • Three (3) foot stainless steel overbraided lead
  • 300 stainless steel housing (locknut included)
  • Magnet that resists demagnetization
  • Unique potting that compensates for temperature extremes
  • Focusing tip (pole piece) which allows greater air gap with no signal loss
  • Operating temperature range: -450°F to +850°F & +1000°F intermittently
  • IR leakage: 50 Mohms @ 50 VDC minimum
  • High signal output
  • High Shock and Vibration resistance - Impact: 15 G's (11 mS, 1/2 sine) min.; Vibration: 20 G's at 2,000 Hz min
  • Unconditional six (6) month warranty if used within specifications
