SSI RSC-2800 Contactless Magnetic Angle Sensor
- Manufacturer: Novotechnik
- Category: Displacement, Encoder, Absolute Encoder, Single-turn Absolute Encoder, Absolute Magnetic Encoder, Angular displacement sensor, SENSORS
Novotechnik RSC-2800 SSI Magnetic Angle Sensor. Non-contact, 360° magnetic sensor.
Non-contact magnetic angle sensor: measures the orientation of the magnetic field, not its intensity like conventional Hall sensors. Measurement range up to 360°. Analog and digital outputs depending on the version. Plastic housing with elongated slots. Three shaft versions, one with a snap-on coupling.
Key points
- Contactless magnetic technology
- 360° measuring range
- With press-fit coupling or with marked shaft
