Introduction
HB Products’ linear position sensors designed for The sensors is unique, with a short body length
position control on industrial compressors and fast response time.
Key features
- Saves on assembly time and - Rugged stainless steel construction
manufacturing costs as magnet or target
tube need not be installed. - Produced to comply with ATEX/IECEX and
standards.
- Small transducer body length to stroke
ratio.
Measuring principle
Non-contact True Position Measurement with Inductive Eddy Current Technology.
HB Products’ innovative electronics has made it possible to use alu as the target material, which in many
applications makes it possible to cut down on manufacturing costs and avoid mounting a magnet.
The Eddy Current non-contact measuring principle has been used for displacement and position sensing on
industrial applications for more than 30 years.
Function
Eddy current transducer performance is dependent on the impedance coupling between the
electromagnetic field in the sensor coil and the eddy currents in the conductive target (see illustration
below). Sensor performance is related to the change in sensor coil impedance over the calibrated range of
target motion.
The electrical parameters of target material resistivity and permeability determine the performance
capability of inductive measuring systems. Both magnetic and nonmagnetic materials can provide high
output sensitivity in terms of impedance change per unit of target displacement. Typically, aluminium has
been used as the target material since steel has a lower output and needs more accurate circuit tuning.
Temperature Compensation is dynamic and measured automatically by the sensor Coil.

Approvals
The sensor complies with the approvals below
IECEx and ATEX
EMC Test
EMC Emission EN61000-3-2
EMC Immunity EN61000-4-2
Vibration resistance:
IEC 68-2-6, 10g, 10 to 2000Hz
Environmental test, incl.
Damp heat cyclic, Low storage temperature, Sinus vibration, Shock test, Dry heat test, and Cooling test.
Design and function
The sensor consists of a pressure-proof stainless steel pipe (in which the sensor coil is mounted) connected
to the electronic housing by a cable.
All components are fully sealed with two compound potting materials. In the sensor coil, this eliminates any
risk of short circuit, and in the electronic housing this eliminates any risk of condense.
SA96DX-I/Ex sensor has a measuring range from 100 to 1000 mm.
SLCD-M1/25/Ex sensor has a measuring range from 5 to 100 mm.
The signal transmitted is a 4 - 20 mA analogue signal.
Cable connection is a DIN plug.
Electrical connection
DIN Plug connection:
DIN 43 650 Connector 1 = Supply +12 to 28V DC
2 = Common
3 = 4-20mA Output

LED indication
Normal operation:
When the sensor is mounted and operating, the compressor capacity is indicated. The position is indicated
in a range of 0-100%, corresponding to 4..20 mA.

Calibration instructions:
Calibration must be done before operation:
1. Before connecting voltage to the LDS check wiring connections are correct on the plug.
2. Apply supply voltage for a minimum of 1 minute before calibration.
3. Enable calibration mode by pressing the calibration button for 5 seconds.
4. Move slide valve to 0% position and push calibration button ONCE.
5. Observe: The red LED will light up constantly (ON) for some seconds. When the red LED flashes it will
indicate that the unit is ready for 100% calibration.
6. Now move the slide valve to 100% position and push the calibration button TWICE. The red LED will flash
rapidly.
7. Observe: When the red LED goes off the calibration procedure is complete.
Note.
The LED`s power down after 5min (no flashing) …….To activate the LED’s push the button once.
The green LED indicate end position ……. <1% = green LED flash, between 1 to 99% green LED is OFF, >99%
= green LED is ON.
The red LED indicate power up and show status during calibration acc. to the calibration instruction.
