Position Sensors


Rotary Position - Single Channel
Non-contact rotary position sensors are designed to measure the angular position of a moving shaft or actuator. Due to their non-contact design, they offer high reliability and signal integrity. Any measurement angle up to 360° can be supplied with a rising or falling output. The sensors are based on Hall Effect technology measuring the change in field direction of the target magnet. When connected to an interface unit or supporting ECU it is possible to determine rotational position.
Unit supply voltage: | Ref 5Vdc |
Measurement angle: | up to 360° |
Operating temperature: | -10°C to +160°C |
Channels: | 1 |
Typical applications: | Drum position, throttle position, pedal position, steering |


Rotary Position - Dual Channel
Non-contact rotary position sensors are designed to measure the angular position of a moving shaft or actuator. Duo to their non-contact design they offer high reliability and signal integrity. Any measurement angle up to 360° can be supplied with a rising or falling output or a combination of both. Dual channel output allows dual redundancy. The sensors are based on Hall Effect technology measuring the change in field direction of the target magnet. When connected to an interface unit or supporting ECU it is possible to determine rotational position.
Unit supply voltage: | Ref 5Vdc |
Measurement angle: | up to 360° |
Operating temperature: | -10°C to +160°C |
Channels: | 2 |
Typical applications: | Drum position, throttle position, pedal position, steering |

Linear Position
Linear position sensors are designed to measure the relative movement between parts. The sensor uses Hall effect technology to detect the changing magnetic field of a target magnet as it moves relative to the sensor. The change in magnetic field produces a proportional change in output voltage of the sensor. When connected to an interface unit or supporting ECU it is possible to determine linear position.
Unit supply voltage: | 5Vdc (The sensor is ratiometric and assumes a reference 5V supply) |
Output range: | 0.2V to 4.8V |
Operating temperature: | -10°C to +175°C |
Stroke: | 22mm |
Typical applications: | Brake master cylinder stroke, LPA stroke, suspension travel, throttle pedal travel, actuator travel |
