SGM-PE10 is an external magnetostrictive linear position sensor in an aluminium profile housing. It mounts on the machine surface with clamps, measures 25–8000 mm with a slider, trapezoid or floating magnet, and outputs 4–20 mA, 0–10 V, RS485 or SSI with non-linearity below ±0.01% FS.
The SGM-PE10 aluminum profile housing is convenient for installation on machine surfaces or in external spaces. Analog output 0-10VDC / 4-20mA / 0-20mA; digital output RS485 / SSI / Profinet (on request). Part number prefix SGM stands for the SEGMENsensor magnetostrictive range; the full ordering code is explained below and in the datasheet.
