Model 0122-0001 of the Series 100 Linear Velocity Transducers is designed for accurate measurement of linear velocity in various applications, including seismology and hydraulic systems. This model features a working range of 6.0 inches (150 mm) and a usable range of 8.0 inches (203 mm). It generates a nominal output sensitivity of 160 mV per inch per second (6 mV per mm per second) and has an electrical impedance of 11,500 ohms when the coils are connected in series. The transducer operates without external excitation, producing a self-generating DC voltage output that varies linearly with the velocity of the magnet core. It is housed in a robust design with dimensions that include a coil housing length of 7.63 inches (194 mm) and a diameter of 15.81 inches (402 mm). The operating temperature range is from -50¬8F to +200¬8F (-46¬8C to +93¬8C), making it suitable for a variety of environmental conditions. For installation, it is recommended to use non-magnetic stainless steel extension rods to ensure optimal performance across the full measurement range. This model is particularly useful in applications requiring instantaneous velocity measurements.
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.
