Hall Effect rotary position sensor has harsh environment options
A comprehensive selection of configuration options and durable construction make BEI Sensors' new Model 9660 Hall Effect rotary position sensor a good choice for demanding harsh environment angular measurement applications across all areas industry. Available in the UK from Variohm EuroSensor, the IP67-rated sensor is available with 24 standard electrical angles through 0-360 degrees and seven termination options including flying leads, Metri-Pack, AMP and Deutsch connectors. Both single or dual redundant outputs configured as voltage, ratiometric, PWM and current combine with input voltages that include 5V DC, 9..30V DC and 15..30V DC. Furthermore, thanks to its modular construction, the 9660 range is available on fast delivery times - even for small quantities.
The 9660 sensor is compact, with a mounting area of 51mm × 37mm and a height of less than 35mm. The non-contacting Hall Effect technology returns a very long working life, and suits the most arduous shock and vibration conditions. With an operating temperature range of -40degC to +125degC, the sensor is aimed at applications from general industrial measurement to harsh environment use such as steering and pedal positioning for construction, agriculture and mining vehicles, marine steering and speed control, wheel and throttle position feedback for material handling, and valve positioning for process control.
Variohm Eurosensor provides complete sales and application support for BEI Sensors' wide range of position-sensing components and display electronics as its exclusive distribution partner for the UK.
