KD-2306

Q: What can the KD-2306 replace?

It is a cost-effective replacement for LVDTs, air gauges, dial indicators, and micrometers in applications from lab work to production and process automation.

Q: What outputs does the KD-2306 provide?

0-10 VDC standard, plus 0-5 VDC, ±5 VDC, 4-20 mA, and a differential 0-10 VDC output — single-ended, bipolar, or differential.

Q: How accurate is it across temperature?

Standard thermal sensitivity is 0.1% FS/°F; an optional temperature-compensated calibration improves that to 0.02% FS/°F over a specified range.

DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY

Model Number
KD-2306 non-contact linear proximity/displacement measuring system

Conforms with Applicable Standards of:
Council Directive 89/336/EEC as amended by 92/31/EEC (EMC Directive)
Council Directive 73/23/EEC as amended by 93/68/EEC (LVD Directive)

EMC
EN 61326-1:2006 — Industrial Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use
EN 55011:2007 — Class A Group 1 Radiated Emissions

LVD
EN 61010-1:2001 — requires a limited-energy power supply per Article 9.3. The KD-2306 does not use or switch voltages above 60 VDC or 42.4 VAC peak (30 VAC rms).

Options

Sensor Cables — cable extension (longer or shorter than standard), in-line connector splice for easy sensor replacement, and hermetic in-line splice for pressure-boundary pass-throughs.

Special Calibrations — custom range, target-material matching, and temperature compensation (improving thermal sensitivity to 0.02% FS/°F over a specified 100°F range).

Output — 4-20 mA and differential 0-10 VDC in addition to the standard 0-10 VDC.

Synchronization — oscillator sync eliminates beat-note interference when multiple sensors sit within three sensor diameters of each other.

Log Amp Bypass — reduces noise for extremely short-range calibrations.

Accessories

Cables, mounting hardware, calibration tools, and replacement parts are available. See the Accessories data sheet for details.
