Sensor Systems has added a range of Hall-effect rotary position sensors to its ST350 series.
The company said the sensors simplify customer use by providing the CANbus outputs needed for new-generation control systems.
An operating range up to 360deg gives customers greater control and system accuracy by allowing them to select a range more closely suited to their application.
Supply voltage up to 30VDC and the CANbus DS301/DS406 profiles up to 1Mbits/s improve compatibility with a variety of control systems.
Linearity of +/- 0.50deg with a resolution of about +/- 0.09deg provides customers with increased measurement precision.
Thermal drift lower than 100ppm/C allows applications under adverse ambient conditions.
Different connector choices (for example, AMP Superseal or Deutsch) satisfy customer connection requirements.
The ST350 series sensors use solid-state Hall-effect technology, providing non-contact operation, enhancing service life and reducing wear-out mechanisms.
This series uses a magnetically based, Hall-effect IC to sense rotary movement of the actuator shaft over an operating range.
The IC, together with conditioning and protection circuitry and a permanent magnet, is sealed in a rugged package rated IP67 or greater for durability in harsh environments.
A dual-output version is available for redundancy and backup.
The ST350 series can be used in a range of applications including marine, medical, cranes, aerial platforms, drilling machines, excavators, robotics and mobile equipment.
