The new RFE 3200 is built for harsh environment installation where ease of use and measurement reliability is crucial. With ISO 60068 rated shock and vibration ratings of 50 g and 20 g respectively, the sensor meets the most stringent standards for EMC noise emissions and immunity. A full-scale linearity of 0.5% and repeatability of less than +/- 0.1 ⁰ ensure measurement precision in single channel and dual redundant versions. A 12 to 24 V DC input voltage allows use across all types of mobile machinery with very low current consumption whilst output options of 4 … 20 mA, 0.25 … 4.75 V, 0.5 … 4.5 V, CANopen and CAN SAE J1939 ensure wide flexibility for measurement control systems.

The impressive environmental specification for the RFE 3200 continues with a temperature range rating of -40 … +105° C for the current and fieldbus versions. For even higher ambient temperature resilience, the voltage and ratiometric versions have an increased temperature capability to + 125° C. For DIN EN ISO 13849, PLd / Cat. 3 safety-related applications, dual-channel designs are also available. The high-grade temperature resistant housing measures approximately 41.5 x 59 x 18 mm including an integral Amp MQS 6-pin connector and two stainless steel M4 threaded insert fixings. A wide choice of position marker magnets include shaft-mounted, disc type, screw threaded and flat designs. Full specifications and details are available from www.variohm.com.
