Overview
The miniature RH5210 flange mount Hall Effect contactless rotary position sensor is designed around a unique two-part assembly consisting of a sealed electronics module and a separate operating shaft set within precision 'twin' long life stainless steel ball-race bearings. When rotated, the shaft accurately measures up to 360° of angular position without mechanical contact with the face of the sensing module (contactless). The design provides an environmentally sealed sensing module independent of shaft sealing making it suitable for measurement applications where fluid, debris and vibration are a consideration.
The sensor operates from either a 5Vdc regulated or 6 to 30Vdc unregulated supply and the output signal is 0.5V - 4.5V with a 12-bit resolution (0.08°). The operating temperature is 130°C and every RH5210 sensor module is heat cycled prior to final calibration to ensure output signal stability when operated at elevated temperatures. The sensors electrical angle and output signal direction, clockwise or anticlockwise is specified by the customer. Additionally, the compact electronics housing is designed for the easy fitting of a Raychem heat shrink cable boot.
