Construction

Electrical connection: The electrical connection is made
via a cable or a connector (see Type code breakdown on
page 20).
Housing: Housing containing the processing electronics.
Fastening: We recommend assembling the following
BTLs on the mounting thread:
– BTL5-...-H: M18×1.5
– BTL5-...-W: 3/4"-16UNF
Magnet: Defines the position to be measured on the
waveguide. Magnets are available in various models and
must be ordered separately (see Accessories on
page 18).
Nominal length: Defines the travel/length range available.
Rods with various nominal stroke lengths from 25 mm to
4000 mm are available depending on the version of the
BTL:
– Ø 10.2 mm: Nominal length from 25 mm to 4000 mm
– Ø 8 mm: Nominal length from 25 mm to 1016 mm
Damping zone: Area at the end of the rod that cannot be
used for measurements, but which may be passed over.

Function

The BTL contains the waveguide which is protected by an
outer stainless steel tube (rod). A magnet is moved along
the waveguide. This magnet is connected to the system
part whose position is to be determined.
The magnet defines the position to be measured on the
waveguide.
An internally generated INIT pulse interacts with the
magnetic field of the magnet to generate a torsional wave
in the waveguide which propagates at ultrasonic speed.
The component of the torsional wave which arrives at the
end of the waveguide is absorbed in the damping zone to
prevent reflection. The component of the torsional wave
which arrives at the beginning of the waveguide is
converted by a coil into an electrical signal. The travel time
of the wave is used to calculate the position, which is
output in the form of
synchronous-serial data (SSI) on the RS-422 interface.
This is done with a high level of precision and
reproducibility within the measuring range indicated as the
nominal length.
