Panasonic HG-S Series - Digital Displacement Sensors

Ultra-slim contact-type displacement sensor

Introducing the Panasonic HG-S Series contact-type digital displacement sensor. It features class leading accuracy in a slim and strong unit body.

Slim size

Allows for side-by-side mounting.

Class leading ruggedness*

Top rated for vibration, impact and lateral load resistance.

Highest accuracy in its class*

Resolution of 0.1 0.1 µm (0.004 mil) and indication accuracy of 1 µm (0.039 mil) or less (HG-S1110(R))

Absolute value scale reading

Eliminates “value skipping” and “unset zero point”

Industry's first intuitive dual display on controller*

2-line digital display for unprecedented ease of use

Versatile & easy-to-use controller

Resolution of 0.1 0.1 µm (0.004 mil) and indication accuracy of 1 µm (0.039 mil) or less (HG-S1110(R))

Easy unit-to-unit connection

Connect up to 15 follower units to one leader unit in any order for multi-point calculations.

Features

State-of-the-art sensor head

With a state-of-the-art sensor head, the HG-S Series features a robust head on a slim body with a 2-point structure to increase rigidity, a spindle whirl-stop with metal guide, and durability to withstand more than 200 million vertical sliding operations. The HG-S Series boasts top of the class accuracy with a 0.1 µm resolution and 0.5-1.0 µm indication accuracy based on the range. Precision is increased by reducing tip deviation to 35 µm or less.

Simplified equipment mechanisms

The HG-S Series features air-driven type sensor heads to reduce cost, man-hours, and installation space as well as improving the accuracy of the equipment.

Lateral load resistance

Tested by Panasonic's very own engineers,the HG-S Series is proven to withstand more than 100 million sliding operations under the application of a lateral load.

Sliding lateral load resistance

The HG-S Series withstands the test against a lateral sliding load and is resistant to shock and vibration.

Spindle stopper

Featuring a spindle stopper in the lower section of the sensor, the HG-S Series is resistant to upward thrust impact, minimizing damage to the internal structure.
