Position Sensors

A position sensor is any idea that permits position measurement. It can either be an absolute position sensor or a relative one (displacement sensor). Position sensors can be either linear or angular.

Equipment
The OneWireless™ XYR™ 6000 Position Sensor allows remote, reliable valve position monitoring in a variety of applications to avoid the time and safety risk of manually monitoring valves in hazardous areas and remote installations.
The Macro Sensors RSE 1500 series of contactless, fractional-turn, absolute output rotary position sensors are ideal for measuring the position of quarter-turn valves, flue dampers, weir gates, mail sorters, conveyor check weigher systems, dancer arm tensioners, and myriad other applications involving fractional-turn shaft movements.
Linear position sensors accurately measure displacement in control and monitoring systems. They are used extensively in aviation, medical equipment, construction and agricultural vehicle and automotive applications. Active Sensors offer a range of technologies that provide precise measurements in high temperature, hostile environments.
BEI Duncan Electronics rotary potentiometric solutions offer customers a range of options that can resolve up to 3600 degrees (10-turns) of motion, meet IP66/67 sealing requirements, and provide operational life exceeding 10 million cycles.
This sensor is designed for continuous output corresponding to the rotation angle of a magnetic actuator, typically Cherry’s AS500106. Two electrically independent outputs assure very high reliability.
Temposonics S Series ServoSensor position controller is a complete servo controller installed and interfaced inside a standard MTS Temposonics sensor envelope. This eliminates the need for costly servoamplifiers and complex Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) setups utilized for setpoint control.
Penny+Giles announces a new dual output, no-contact rotary position sensor with the slimmest low profile housing, using a factory programmable Hall effect sensor system.
Absolute incremental A Quad B output available (ISI) plus Analog, ASI, SSI, Start Stop, CANOpen, DeviceNet, PNT and Profibus. Stroke lengths up to 3 meters standard. Other lengths by request.
Position Encoder sensors are used to find position of the wheel. It consists of IR LED and Photodiode mounted facing each other enclosed in plastic body. When light emited by the IR LED is blocked because of alternating slots of the encoder disc logic level of the photo diode changes.
The Gill 360º Blade Rotary Sensor is a solid-state inductive rotary position sensor, capable of measuring a full 0-359º. The sensor uses Gill’s patented induction technology to sense the position of a metallic ‘activator, mounted to (or formed as part of) the moving object.
