The AP05 position indicator guides the user intuitively to the correct machine setting in the case of product or format change. The optimized backlit display indicates target values and actual values straight to the point. Two LEDs show the machine operator precisely the direction whereto the adjustment is to be performed.The AP05 helps avoid wrong machine settings and enhances process safety of flexible production machines.
  • Electronic position indicator with bus/data interface
  • Backlit two-row LCD
  • Display of target and actual value displays with integrated alignment
  • User guidance through status LEDs
  • Hollow shaft with  Ø 20 mm and clamping ring made of stainless steel
  • Enhanced shock resistance owing to protective display glass
  • Integrated RS485 interface, CAN bus or IO-Link as an option
  • Robust sensor technology unit thanks to magnetic scanning
  • Mechanically compatible with the AP04 and DA04 position indicators
  • IP53 protection class, IP65 as an option
  • Industry 4.0 ready
