MINIATURE CONTACTLESS ROTARY HALL EFFECT SENSOR MEASURES 360 DEGREES

20th August 2009

Active Sensors have launched the unique RH100 'two part' miniature rotary Hall Effect sensor designed specifically for industrial and automotive control and measurement systems. When rotated close to the module face, the shaft accurately measures up to 360° of angular position without mechanical contact with the module -wear free!  Ideal for applications where moisture, dust and vibration are a consideration.The sensor operates from either a 5Vdc regulated or 6 to 30Vdc unregulated supply and has an output signal of 0.5V – 4.5V with a 12-bit resolution (0.08°). The operating temperature is 130°C.

The RH module and shaft design offers a versatile and reliable position sensing solution with a multitude of mounting options. RH models are available with the rotating shaft set within 'twin' long life stainless steel ball-race bearings for low-force shaft operation.

Active Sensors is a leading designer of high performance rotary and linear position sensors for motion control and measurement systems. Active Sensors specialise in contactless and contacting technology providing sensor specifications of the highest quality and accuracy.
