The F130, from Pepper+Fuchs, is a 360° angle measurement system with a 4 mA...20 mA current output as well as two switching points. Zero-point and position switching points may be easily configured with the assistance of built-in LEDs via a teach-in button. The F130 system features wear-free functional operation, high measurement precision and a resolution of 0,4°. Mechanical design and the inductive measurement principle tolerate relatively high variations of the rotational targets position in the axial and radial direction (1 to 2 mm). Targets such as the BT-F130-A or customer-specific actuators with a diameter of up to 40 mm can be used.
The device is designed for assembly on standard mounting plates of 80 x 30 mm. The zero-point can be set individually depending on the F130 placement.
