Magnet Carrier Actuator for AN8 Position Sensor range.

RoHS compliant.

AN8 POSITION SENSORS

Non-contact, intrinsically linear contact angle Position Sensors.  The sensors operate through the use of Hall Effect technology with magnetic fields generated by permanent magnets.  

They provide a linear change in voltage output (ratiometric to the input voltage) corresponding to an angular rotation of the input shaft.

Features of the AN8 Position Sensor Series:

• 
  Angular position sensor with high tolerance for misalignment


• 
  Non-contact angular position sensing and full 360°C rotation


• 
  Custom programming available for: angle range, slope, PWM output...


• 
  No mechanical interface means no parts to wear out or jam


• 
  Available with Delphi connector or 12" (305mm) wire leads


• 
  RoHS compliant


• 
  IP67


• 
  Maximum air gap of 5.5mm (0.22")*

*Actuator length based on distance from pivot point

Application:

• 
  Implement (fork lift, agricultural trailer hitch, etc) position sensing


• 
  Steer, throttle by wire


• 
  Gear selection


• 
  Zero-contact encoder alternative


• 
  Repacement for smart bearings


• 
  Outboard trim sensing
