Balluff BTL003C Magnetostrictive Position Sensor

Balluff BTL003C is a magnetostrictive linear position sensor that provides absolute position feedback along a defined sensing length, translating the position of a travel magnet into an electrical signal without contact. Using Balluff's magnetostrictive principle, it delivers wear-free, continuous displacement data that supports high-precision motion control in confined spaces such as hydraulic cylinders, actuators, or linear slides. As part of the Balluff BTL magnetostrictive family, the BTL003C is designed for rugged industrial use with robust sealing and reliable operation across a range of temperatures, making it suitable for demanding factory environments. The exact electrical output and mounting options vary by model within the BTL lineup, but the device is intended to integrate with standard automation equipment, providing position data to motion controllers, PLCs, or data acquisition systems that require absolute sensing and precise feedback for repeatable positioning.
