Elmhurst, IL (March 5, 2008) - ASM Sensors, Inc. has introduced a new catalog including the latest solutions in position sensing. The catalog features the new POSIROT magnetic angular sensors and the new POSITILT magnetic inclination sensor. POSIROT sensors include a new generation of contact-free and wear-free 360 degree position sensors with a typical resolution of 0.1 degree.
These industrial grade sensors are housed in a rugged stainless steel enclosure rated up to IP 69K. The new POSITLT magnetic inclinometer uses an innovative magnetic sensor that is capable of measuring ±180 degree in a robust housing that is also rated up to IP 69K. Both sensor series have been tested to withstand 100 g shocks and 20 g vibration and offer either an analog current or voltage output. The sensors may be ordered with custom measurement ranges in 15 degree increments. The new catalog also includes an overview of the wide range of ASM WS cable actuated position sensors, POSIMAG magnetoresistive and POSICHRON magnetostrictive position sensors that are suitable for use in many factory automation and test & measurement applications.
