Penny and Giles has launched the SRH500P rotary sensor.
The factory-programmable sensor, for use in extreme environments, gives OEMs a wide selection of parameters so the sensor can be configured to suit their individual needs.
Based on non-contact Hall effect technology, it can operate in high- dither vibration conditions with no deterioration of the sensing element.
Its resistance to shock and vibration makes it suitable for many position monitoring applications on off-road vehicles.
These include steering position, suspension position and lift system position on municipal, agricultural and construction vehicles.
The sensor operates from either a 5V DC regulated or 9-30V DC unregulated power supply and can be supplied programmed with any one of 341 different angles from 20 degrees up to 360 degrees in one degree increments.
It has a 12-bit resolution (0.025 per cent) over the selected measuring range and for ease of configuration it is available with single or dual redundant analogue (0.5 to 4.5V DC) or digital (PWM) outputs.
OEMs can specify the measurement range and output in a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
A dual-output version can be set up to have independent measurement ranges for each output.
SRH500P is easy to install and has very low maximum output signal noise of 1 mV rms, which means that no additional signal filtering is required on the output signal.
It is mechanically interchangeable with the Penny and Giles SRS880 and SRH880 rotary sensors, enabling existing users to upgrade to a greater level of control.
The sensor is available in marine-grade cast aluminium housing with 88mm diameter flange and 12mm diameter shaft.
When specified with cable option D it is sealed to IP69K for increased protection against dust, water and pressure jets.
When powered at 5V DC it operates reliably from -40 to +140C.
The sensor is available with four choices of electrical connection: gland only, gland and cable, gland cable and IP69K connector, and M12 connector.
Larger volume users can also be offered non-linear and switched outputs, clamp voltage levels, mixed analogue and digital outputs and different output phasing to shaft position.
