New in-cylinder transducer offers
position sensing
Penny + Giles has launched a reliable new in-cylinder linear displacement transducer for small bore mobile and static hydro-pneumatic actuators
The ICT050 provides reliable, fit-and-forget position sensing of the cylinder rod in actuators with strokes up to 500mm It is a robust, non-contact transducer that works on an inductive coil principle, with virtually infinite resolution and is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 200C and working pressures up to 500Bar

New longer linear displacement sensor from P + G
To complement its popular range of SLS320 linear displacement sensors, Penny + Giles has launched a new extended version, with stroke lengths up to 1600mm, giving cost-effective high performance
New reliable and cost-effective position sensor
Penny + Giles, a leading designer and manufacturer of position sensors, has launched the new SLS220 reliable and cost-effective position sensor, with short stroke lengths for process applications
The new transducer is aimed primarily at the off-highway (construction, agriculture) and utility vehicle market.
Its robust construction is ideal for the harsh conditions of lifting and steering position applications and hydro-pneumatic active suspension systems.
ICT050 has a very efficient body-to-stroke ratio.
The overall length is only slightly longer than the working stroke length, facilitating a much more compact installation than can be effected with traditional linear transducer designs.
The stroke range covers 25mm to 500mm stroke actuators and the transducer body diameter is just 5.4mm, allowing it to be used in smaller diameter actuators.
The transducer core can be supplied in sleeved, threaded or force-fit variants, with a wide choice of transducer mounting flanges, including SAE1926/2 and ISO6149/2 compatible thread forms.
All configurations are available on rapid delivery, and can be supplied within a few days of ordering.
ICT050 is an addition to the P+G existing range of in-cylinder transducers that includes the popular ICT080 and ICT100 for stroke lengths of up to 2000mm. Request a free brochure from Penny + Giles ...
