Piher Sensing Systems PSC-360 Contactless Sensors

Piher Sensing Systems PSC-360 Contactless Sensors are Hall-Effect, end-of-shaft, non-contacting rotary position sensors designed for high performance in harsh environments. The PSC-360 contactless sensors feature a non-contacting design with a securely fastened magnet as the only moving component. These PSC-360 sensors offer contactless operation, minimizing wear and tear, with an endless rotational angle and programmable angular ranges between 15° and 360°. PSC-360 contactless sensors operate within a temperature range from -40°C to +125°C and support current ratings up to 47mA. Typical applications include home and building automation, industrial, marine, and transportation.
