Gravity position indicators

ELESA gravity position indicators are widely used in various types of machinery and equipment and allow operators to obtain and visualize accurate position information for various key components. From spindles, linear axes, or adjustment mechanisms, precise and reliably repeatable adjustments can be made–a must for efficient production facilities. ELESA gravity position indicators are a vital addition for precision operations.

Gravity-driven position indicators utilize the natural force of gravity and a counterbalanced dial to accurately display degrees and shifts in movement. As a hand wheel is turned, the pointers move while the dial is kept still by gravity. Every turn of the large pointer (red) corresponds to a fraction of a turn of the small pointer (black), and these numbers combine to form the indicator ratio. Dials are available for all standard ratios in configurations with clockwise or counter-clockwise graduations. Special dials with marks or customized graduations are available on request, and ultrasonic welded windows ensure that cases are securely sealed so as to be dust and water tight (IP 65 protection). 

ELESA gravity position indicators are suitable for horizontal or up to 60° inclined spindles and offer both analogue and digital readings. They are available in technopolymer and steel and can be combined with hand wheels or knobs for coupling to a drive shaft.
