Position sensors
Honeywell SMART position sensors are among the most durable and adaptable position measurement devices available. These sensors use a patented combination to enable accurate position detection with improved speed and accuracy. Their simple, non-contact design eliminates mechanical failure mechanisms, reduces wear, improves reliability and durability, increases operational efficiency and safety, and minimizes downtime.
Potential applications
- Front loader and excavator arm position
- Robot-assisted surgical devices
- Ship engines and aircraft engines
- Position of railroad crossing gates
- Door position of military vehicles
- Wind turbines
Functionality
The SMART position sensor is a non-contact sensor for precise position detection with increased accuracy. It measures the position of a magnet in relation to the sensor in three available measuring ranges, making it a useful solution in the transportation, industrial, and aerospace industries.
- Uses magnetoresistive technology to detect the position of a magnet relative to the sensor in a detection range from 0° to 145°.
- Measures linear, angular, or rotational movement.
