Honeywell rounds out its SMART position sensor portfolio with its Rotary Configuration that provides 360 degree non-contact angular position sensing.
- Enables design engineers to replace an optical encoder, or to utilize a sensor instead of a resolver
- Utilizes non-contact magnetoresistive (MR) technology to determine the object’s position, which allows it to accurately sense position in dirty and harsh environments
- Measures values down to 0.01 degrees
- Potential transportation applications include steering angle, articulation angle and boom arm detection
- Uses a patented combination of an ASIC and an array of MR sensors to accurately determine the position of a magnet collar attached to a rotating object to identify and control the object’s position
- Helps OEMs reduce warranty costs because there are fewer parts to wear out or break down
- Automotive-grade potting makes it more resistant to vibration, shock, and extreme temperatures
- Repeatable output occurs within a 3.0 mm ±2.0 mm (0.118 in. ±0.079 in.) air gap between the sensor and magnet collar
- Provides minimal signal error with up to 2.50 mm (0.10 in.) of radial error
