MP62TA00

The MP62TA00 is a 5/8-inch threaded Magnetic Pickup and In-line Pre-amplifier consists of a permanent magnet, a pole-piece and a sensing coil all encapsulated in a cylindrical case. An object (target) of iron, steel or other magnetic material, passing closely by its pole-piece causes distortion of the magnetic flux field passing through the sensing coil and pole piece, which in turn generates a signal voltage. The magnitude of the signal voltage depends on the relative size of the magnetic target, its speed of approach and how close it approaches. The polarity of the signal depends on whether the target is moving toward or away from the pole-piece. Magnetic pickups are most frequently used to sense passing teeth on a gear, sprocket or timing belt wheel, to bolt-heads, key-ways or other moving machine mounted targets. Magnetic pickups are used primarily for tachometer and other speed related functions.

Notes

Magnetic pickup signal leads should never be run in conduit, troughs or bundles with other power or control voltage lines. Lead length of magnetic pickup should not be extended.
