Abstract
A system for damping the reflection wave at the open end () of a magnetostrictive sensor system has at least one magnet device () movable relative to a measuring wire () that can be deflected mechanically and that experiences a deflection under the influence of a current pulse (). The deflection can then be processed by a signal device (). The system has at least one damping part () lying against the measuring wire () by a sleeve-shaped enclosure (). The sleeve-shaped enclosure () can be deformed from an expanded initial state intended for attaching the sleeve-shaped enclosure to the damping element (), to a constricted functional state that exerts a clamping force on the damping element (). The method is characterized in that the sleeve-shaped enclosure () is constricted to an increasing extend from the end () of the sleeve-shaped enclosure adjacent to the signal device () to the other end (') so that the tubular damping element () is likewise pressed into a conical contour. At least the conical contour of the sleeve-shaped enclosure () is continuous and without interruption.
