950MD Mill-Duty Housing Series 950MD Housing The series 950 Mill-Duty Housing (950MD) was designed for applications where mounting a stand-alone rod style linear displacement transducer (LDT) is prohibitive. Potential physical damage, environmental conditions or mounting limitations are all elements that are involved in specifying a linear position feedback system that will perform flawlessly for many years to come.
950MD Mill-Duty Housing Due to the fact that the standard Mill-Duty Housing has a mechanical stroke identical to the LDT active stroke, no physical over-stroke exists. If it is possible that the machine being coupled to can extend/retract beyond the stroke supplied, damage to the Mill-Duty Housing and possibly to the machine might occur. To compensate for this we call out fully retracted/fully extended over-stroke dimensions for the Mill-Duty Housing.
950MD Mill-Duty Housing Applications The 950MD was originally designed for use in steel mill applications but has proven to be reliable in many applications where ruggedness, environmental protection and ease of mounting are required.
