Rotary Position Sensors With Programmable Switches

Southborough, MA - Novotechnik U.S. introduces the RFC4800 Series of touchless rotary angle sensors that provide absolute, rotary position. It is available with two programmable switch outputs on the analog version.

The RFC4800 Series utilizes a magnetic pickup to provide a touchless measurement range of 0 to 360°. Other key specifications include 4 to 20 mA current output, sealed to the IP 67 standard, resolution to 12 bits, and independent linearity of ±0.5 %.

Switch characteristics include two PNP positive switched outputs, width of switching zone is user programmable, data retention is a minimum of 50 years, edge width of switch function is less than or equal to 0.1° and accuracy of switch edges is ±1°.

Magnetic marker mounts to a shaft on users application up to 25 mm from sensor.

Designed to withstand shock and vibration up to 100G/20G, RFC4800 Series sensors have an operating temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.
