December 10, 2018 - Novotechnik, U.S. introduced the Vert-X 2900 Series of sensors that measure angular position. These sensors are available in single or redundant versions. Elongated holes make mounting easier.
Users can specify configurations including start- and end-angles for less than 360° maximum range, index point, cw or ccw indication and non-linear curves. Measurement range is up to 0 to 360° with repeatability of 0.1° Mechanical range is 360° continuous. Available analog outputs are 10 to 90% of supply voltage and 5 to 95% of supply voltage.
Other key Vert-X 2900 Series specifications include sample rate up to 5 kHz. The sensors are sealed to IP 67, life is ≥ 50 million movements and MTTF is over 650 years.
These sensors are designed for industrial, medical and off-highway vehicle applications with an operating temperature range of -40 to +125°C and immunity to emissions –meeting or exceeding five EN 55022 and EN 61000 standards.
