UNIMEASURE JX-HM SERIES

The UniMeasure JX-HM series linear position measuring transducer is a relatively low cost device for use 
in moderate duty applications in hostile wet or dry environments. The chemical resistant thermoplastic 
case provides IP-67 (NEMA 6) ingress protection for applications where exposure to wash down, rain, oil 
and other liquids may occur. An integral dust wiper insures that the wire rope stays clear of debris as it is 
extracted and retracted. 
The sensing device is a non-contacting multi-turn absolute magnetic encoder which is not susceptible to 
wear in a vibrating or dithering environment. The unit is available with either a current output (4 to 20mA or 
0 to 20mA) or a voltage output (0 to 5V, 0 to 10V, ±5V and ±10V). Removal of a sealed access hatch on the 
rear of the unit (See FIG 1 below) reveals DIP switches that may be used for selecting the desired voltage or 
current outputs, and also push buttons that may be used for programming the zero and span settings. Zero and 
span may be set anywhere within the range of the transducer.
The standard electrical connection includes a M12 sealed 4 position connector. For applications not requiring a 
connector, a bulkhead fitting with a length of multi-conductor electrical cable is available. One of four possible electrical connection locations on 
the transducer body may be specified when ordering. The wire rope exit direction may also be specified at time of order or may be user adjusted 
at time of installation
