TRANSMITTER POWER
SUPPLIES
The
shaft/component mounted transmitter needs a source of electrical power. In
non-demanding (short duration) applications a shaft mounted battery unit is
suitable, but for long term installation in demanding, inaccessible
environments, inductive coupling is essential. |

BATTERY
POWER SUPPLY
For short duration
measurement projects in undemanding environments, battery power for the
transmitter provides a simple and low-cost solution. A benefit of battery power
is that the maximum transmission range - the distance between the shaft and the
stationary pickup - is greater than with inductively powered systems, typically
150-200mm. |

INDUCTIVE
COUPLING
POWER SUPPLY
Robust and impervious to
operating conditions, inductive coupling is the standard method of powering the
transmitter. Electrical energy is transferred from a stationary inductive head
or loop to a second, shaft mounted loop or pickup (IP2). Simultaneously, measurement
data is transmitted back across the same components. Configurations to suit
differing applications are easily produced using the standard interchangeable
heads IH2, IH2/L or loop interface module IL2. |
