Linear position sensors with shaft - Technical characteristics

Hall effect linear position sensors with shaft are designed to detect the position of translating shafts for hydraulic manifolds. They allow the position of the shaft to be read with an accuracy of 0.1 mm for a maximum stroke of ± 12.5 mm (in the standard version).
Thanks to Hall effect technology, the linear movement of the shaft is detected without touching the sensitive element: the absence of mechanical wear guarantees a signal that does not degrade over time.
The programmable card also makes the signal precise, repeatable and configurable in a wide range of types, both analogue and digital. They are immune to electrical and electromagnetic interference and are suitable for use in harsh environments.

PERFORMING ELECTRONICS

- Supply voltage: min 8V – max 30V
- Output signal: single, double

- Operating temperature: -40°/+105 °
- Protections from ESD, load-dump, overvoltage, polarity reversal, short circuit on output

FUNCTIONAL SAFETY AND DIAGNOSTICS

- Signal redundancy thanks to the integration of isolated and galvanically distinct circuits (double output version)
- Diagnosability thanks to the configuration of the outputs
