AN8 Sensors
Non-contact, intrinsically linear contact angle position sensors. The sensors operate through the use of Hall Effect technology with magnetic fields generated by permanent magnets. They provide a linear change in voltage output (ratiometric to the input voltage) corresponding to an angular rotation of the input shaft.
Features
- Angular position sensor with high tolerance for misalignment
- Non-contact angular position sensing and full 360⁰ rotation
- Custom programming available for: angle range, slope, PWM output, custom magnets – contact factory
- No mechanical interface means no parts to wear out or jam
- Available with Delphi connector or 12” (305 mm) wire leads
- RoHS compliant
- IP67
- Maximum air gap of 5.5 mm (0.22”)*
Applications
- Implement (fork lift, agricultural trailer hitch, etc.) position sensing
- Steer, throttle by wire
- Gear selection
- Zero-contact encoder alternative
- Replacement for smart bearings
- Outboard trim sensing
