Signal converter PMX for potentiometer signals

For a number of years, WayCon signal converters have been used in sensor technology for the purpose of converting the signals of a potentiometer into proportionally analogue norm signals (5V/10V/±5V/±10V/4..20mA). In the new version of the PMX, interference and disturbance in the sound have been reduced to a minimum. Another totally new aspect is the integrated cable break recognition, which immediately recognizes and communicates every loss of signal between the sensor and the PMX. This function is especially relevant when used in conjunction with security-relevant applications.

Use of hydraulic position sensors in brake force measurement

Inspecting vehicle brake force is absolutely essential, as brake force is a critical safety factor in road traffic. It decisively affects a vehicle’s ability to slow down or stop in time and prevent potential accidents, so it’s essential for it to be checked regularly.

Brake force inspection is a key component of vehicle maintenance. Several million brake force inspections are performed every year in Germany. These inspections are carried out in workshops, as well as at testing organisations and test centres, to ensure that vehicles meet the legal requirements and that the safety of all road users is guaranteed. The economic significan...
