Magnetic Angular Sensor
The PRAS3 magnetic angular sens or comes in a 1.4-in.- diameter stainless- steel housing with an IP67 or IP69K rating.
The active sensor
element uses an internal, contact-
free permanent magnet to determine
angular position. Optional
measurement ranges start at 0 to
15° and progress in 15° steps up to
0 to 360° rotation. The sensor uses
ball bearings to handle the axial
and radial loads along the 10-mmdiameter
shaft. Mounting brackets
are available for either eccentric
mounting clamps or through-hole
bolts. The range of output choices
include 0.5 to 4.5 V, 0.5 to 10 V, and
4 to 20 mA and whether the output
rises with CW or CCW shaft rotation.
Resolution and repeatability
are ±0.03% full scale while linearity
is ±0.3% full scale.
