Shaft connection type gate opening sensor

The HZW series gate position meter (gate opening sensor) is specifically designed for gate measurement characteristics, utilizing photoelectric or contact encoders, and is manufactured with precision variable-speed mechanisms internally. It offers multiple output signal options for users to choose from, including parallel Gray code, serial RS485, 4-20mA standard analog signals, and SSI synchronous serial signals. This sensor is easy to install, highly adaptable, stable, and reliable, integrating detection and A/D conversion into one unit, with a power-off memory tracking function. It is suitable for measuring the lifting height of various gates (such as flat gates, radial gates, miter gates, gantry cranes, bridge cranes, etc.). Its functionality, features, and reliability are highly trusted and praised by water conservancy and hydropower engineering technicians.

Gate Position Meter Installation*Usage and Precautions:

1. This sensor is a high-precision instrument. Do not strike, drop, or collide with it during installation.

2. Connections between the sensor and external components should avoid rigid connections. Instead, use couplings, connecting gears, or synchronous belts for transmission.

3. During installation, ensure that the allowable axial load is not exceeded. Do not exceed the limit load.

4. Do not exceed the encoder's maximum rotational speed. Exceeding this limit may result in loss of electrical signals.

5. Ensure correct wiring. Incorrect wiring may damage the internal circuit of the sensor.

6. Do not bundle the sensor's output wires with power lines or transmit them through the same conduit. Avoid using near distribution panels to prevent interference.
