The non-contacting PSC-360 programmable Hall effect magnetic sensor features a switch function not found in other 360º absolute position sensors, says the vendor.
The switching point can be programmed at any angle, allowing maximum
design flexibility. It can also be used as an indicator for multi-turn
applications. This low-current switch design incorporates both on and
off positions that provide a secondary position verification for
improved safety, important for critical applications in harsh
environments. The PSC-360 also provides high-temperature capabilities
with operational performance between -40ºC to +150ºC and accuracy over
360º at 0.5%. The IP67-rated sensor is housed in a low-profile 13mm
package. Designed with the permanent magnet as the only moving
component, the sensor provides a mechanical life of up to 50 million
cycles. Pricing is less than $20 in production quantities.
