The high-precision and durable displacement sensor model 8742 is suitable for all applications that require a compact and robust design.

Thanks to its high IP67 protection class and a temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C, it can be used for demanding measurement tasks in many industrial and infrastructure-related applications.

The inductive displacement sensor delivers a highly linear output signal from 0.1 % F.S.. Its performance, repeatability and stability are outstanding over a wide temperature range.

The displacement sensor model 8742 has a compact, stainless steel cabinet with a diameter of 19 mm and is therefore easy to install and align.

Possible installation options are flange mounting, gland mounting using an M5 thread or installation with housing clamps.

The push rod can optionally be equipped with an M5 internal thread, spring return with a curved probe tip or with a rod end.

With output signals of 0.5 ... 9.5 V or 4 ... 20 mA, the sensors can be easily integrated into process control systems and monitoring measuring points.
