Honeywell 4AV Series Hall Effect Vane Position Sensors use a ferrous vane to interrupt magnetic flux between an integrated magnet and sensor, enabling position or speed detection. These sensors can function as limit switches, tachometers, or synchronizing elements, with programmable on/off times based on vane dimensions. The 4AV position sensor features include operation up to 100kHz, a -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range, and compatibility with 4.5VDC to 5.5VDC or 6VDC to 16VDC power supplies. These sensors include compact housings with four in-line PCB terminals or lead wires and provide a current-sinking output with precise pulse width control.
