Key features

  • 205mm measuring range for maximum travel applications 
  • 0.5µm resolution for precise displacement measurement 
  • Accuracy of 6µm across full stroke 
  • Heavy-duty, rigid construction for industrial environments 
  • Resistant to oil, dust, vibration, and shock 
  • Magnetic adsorption feeler options for stability on large components 
  • Built-in reference point for repeatable positioning 
  • A/B quadrature output for PLC and control system integration

Description

The DK205 is part of the Magnescale DK Series, developed for long-range industrial measurement applications where precision must be maintained over extended travel distances.

With the largest measuring range in the DK lineup, the DK205 is ideally suited for large component measurement, displacement monitoring, and positioning control in demanding production environments.

Its rigid construction ensures measurement stability even under mechanical load, while Magnescale’s magnetic sensing technology provides consistent, drift-free performance, even in environments with vibration, contamination, or temperature variation.
