Unintentional displacement, for example through spring breakage or coarse dirt, is detected and signalled by means of an error signal at the output. Due to a simple design, the pedal-actuated transmitters are said to be very cost-efficient.

Manufactured from aluminum and stainless steel, they are IP67-protected and so suitable for use under rugged conditions. Typically, they are used as accelerator or brake pedals in excavators. Unactuated, the pedal angle is 33°, while the pedal displacement is 18°. The units are suitable for temperatures from -30 to 80°C. They are based on wear-free, non-contact magnetic measuring systems that provide analog or digital and redundant control signals at the output. If required, FSG will adapt the mounting dimensions of the base plate and the pedal design to meet customer requirements.
