Position indicators VZPM indicate the distance travelled by linear units. They are mounted to the spindle journal of a linear unit using an adapter bushing and a grub screw.
The counter of the position indicator should be selected from the table based on the spindle thread pitch and direction and the size of the linear unit. Other options, such as installation orientation or housing color, can be defined in the article number.
The polyamide housing is ultrasonically welded, making it especially sturdy, tight and compact. The position indicator is also temperature-resistant to 80 °C and resistant to oils and solvents. The foam rubber seal provides mechanical decoupling and also acts as a seal. The hollow shaft is made of black oxide-finished steel.
If the position indicator is attached to a single tube linear unit, a torque support VZDR or VZDV is required to prevent the position indicator from turning along. For double tube linear units, a torque support VZDD is required only for diameter 18.
As an alternative to the mechanical indicator system, a position indicator VZPE can also be used, which detects and displays the position electronically.
