High Performance Linear Potentiometers

The Magnetic-Hall Contactless Linear Position series are based on true solid-state 'Hall-voltage/magnetic-field' measurement technology, which provide a long life, low noise output sensor for harsh environments. Compared to similar position sensor products, they benefit from improved output signal linearisation over the measurement range, overall sensor accuracy and higher operating temperatures. Long life is assured, as there is no electrical contact between the sensing circuit and the activating shaft. With a measurement range up to 300mm (12"), they offer a versatile position measurement solution in control and monitoring systems that experience severe shock and vibration or suffer fluid and debris contamination.

MHL1000 Series

The MHL1000 Magnetic-Hall Contactless Linear Position series is an extremely lightweight and compact two piece sensor, which is designed to be maintenance free. With the absence of any mechanical linkages, this robust sensor is suitable for use in harsh environments where debris, fluid and vibration are present. The individual measurement range can by specified by the customer in 1mm increments.
