The Model 0100-0000 from the Series 100 Linear Velocity Transducers is designed for accurate measurement of linear velocity. It operates without external excitation, generating a self-sustaining DC voltage output that varies linearly with the velocity of the moving magnet core. This model has a working range of 0.5 inches (12 mm) and a usable range of 1.3 inches (33 mm). The nominal output sensitivity is 120 mV per inch per second, with an electrical impedance of 120 ohms when coils are connected in series. The transducer features a high frequency response and is magnetically shielded, making it suitable for applications such as seismology, hydraulic ram speed, and drilling rate measurement. The operating temperature range is from -50¬8F to +200¬8F (-46¬8C to +93¬8C). The dimensions of the coil housing are 1.34 inches (34 mm) in height and 3.17 inches (81 mm) in diameter, with a weight of 20 grams. The transducer is secured using a split block or clamping arrangement, and it is recommended to avoid set screws to prevent internal damage.
The Series 100 Linear Velocity Transducers provide a simple yet accurate means of measuring linear velocity. They consist of high coercive force permanent magnet cores which induce sizable DC voltage while moving concentrically within shielded coils. The basic design permits operation without external excitation while the generated output voltage varies linearly with core (magnet) velocity. These transducers are ideal for seismology, hydraulic ram speed, drilling rate, and any other application where an instantaneous velocity measurement is required.
