Curtiss-Wright’s Industrial division announces the launch of the NRH305DR from its Penny & Giles brand family, a ‘no-contact’ rotary position sensor.
- Offers optimal combination of performance, safety and cost for OEMs designing vehicles and control systems
- Incorporates two completely independent power supplies and output channels for full electrical redundancy
- Operates from a 5V DC regulated supply
- Features 8 mm (0.31 in.) low-profile sensor body and small footprint
- Fully-encapsulated, IP68/IP69K-rated for exceptional levels of performance against water, dust, shock, vibration and temperature
- Separate magnet assembly which activates sensor can have a permissible air gap between 1.5 and 8 mm (0.06 and 0.31 in. [depending on magnet style]) and can accommodate up to ±2 mm (0.08 in.) radial offset to ease setup and installation
- Factory-programmable electronics can be easily set to one of two analog voltage output ranges or one of three PWM frequencies
- Polarities of each of the analog outputs can be independently set
- On-board diagnostic functions ensure outputs are put into safe, pre-defined states should internal sensor error be detected
- No-contact design and sensing technology provides wear-free operation
- Can be factory set to correspond to rotations of 20-360 degrees in 1-degree increments
- Industry-standard 38 mm (1.5 in.) mounting centers enable easy replacement or upgrades
- Analog output from 0.5-4.5V or 0.2-4.8V
- Transmissive measurements can be made through non-magnetic materials
- Replaces company’s legacy NRH285DR rotary position sensor
- Uses proven, wear-free Hall-effect sensing technology
- Features numerous magnet arrangement options
- Includes over-molded magnet carrier that simplifies interfacing of magnet and sensor during installation
- Optional bolt, plug or loose carrier variations are also available
