PENNY & GILES introduces a revolutionary
non-contact rotary sensor

The NRH280 is a contactless dual output sensor for angular
or displacement
measurement in environmentally demanding
applications. The sensor is based on well proven technology and
offers a completely revolutionary non-contact measurement. It  
can be used for off-road and military vehicles suspension's
monitoring,  marine submersible applications as well as other
challenging industrial applications.
Penny & Giles has used a specialized Hall effect device to construct a sensor that accurately
m
easures rotary position or angle or rotary displacement of an adjacent piece on where the magnet
is placed. The air gap between the magnet and the sensor can be up to 7 mm without any change in
the sensor output. The stainless steel sensor base plate is completely encapsulated in a highly
durable engineered polymer. The ensures that the product is completely sealed to
IP69K (unlimited
submersion in water). The product has a measurement range of 20° to 360°, independent dual
outputs for double redundancy and a 12bit or
0.025% resolution of the measurement range. The
sensor can be supplied with ratiometric analog or PWM or absolute analog outputs. The NRH280
non-contact sensor is
very small at less than 2 inches in size which is ideally suited for applications
where space is restricted.
