• Operational Speed - 10 M/s max,
• Mechanical Life - 
> 25 Million Cycles,
• Recommended Wiper Current - 
< 10μA,
• Independent Linearity - 
≤ +/- 0.5%

Connection & Output Details

6 Core Cable

Track 1

• Red = +V
• Black = 0V
• Yellow = Signal

Track 2

• Brown = +V
• Blue = 0V
• White = Signal

Displacement

• Fully Closed = +Vmax
• Fully Open = 0V

The displacement signals may be reversed by swapping the connections to the Red & Black wires or Brown & Blue wires, providing +Vmax output when Full Open & 0V when fully closed.

DO NOT connect +V supply to the Yellow and White (signal) wires, as this may cause damage to the sensor element.
