Description

The new VLS/DA Series Optical Speed Sensors with a 0-3V Analogue Output via an integral Digital/Analogue converter. It is designed for data logging applications where general speed monitoring of machines is required. It is particularly useful for high speed monitoring as the output updates each revolution, making the sensors ideal for monitoring rapid variations in speed.

Features

  • Rapid response to speed change – output is updated once per resolution
  • Linear voltage vs speed output
  • Wide angle of incidence ± 80° degree
  • On Target indicator standard
  • Contact Adaptor available
  • Easy installation
  • Rugged Glass filled nylon housing
  • Mounting brackets available
