Honeywell SMART Arc SPS-A and CAN Position Sensors

Honeywell SPS-A Series SMART Arc Position Sensors are available with sensing ranges from 0° to 100° and 0° to 180°. These sensors employ non-contact magnetoresistive technology to detect the position of a magnet relative to the sensor, enabling precise motion control in a variety of applications.

Honeywell SMART Arc CAN 145° Position Sensors are designed with a ring magnet for integration into pinned joint applications. These sensors provide position data via CAN J1939 connectivity and utilize magnetoresistive technology to detect the magnet's position within a 0° to 145° range. The SMART Arc CAN sensors are designed to offer higher durability compared to traditional rotary position or in-cylinder sensors.

Sometimes people call me smart, other times they add something to it. Like smart aleck. So when my contacts at Honeywell started to tell me about their Smart Arc, I thought they were somehow complementing me, but it’s really about their new position sensors. Honeywell SMART Arc Position Sensors utilize magnetoresistive technology and an ASIC to accurately and reliably determine the position of a magnet relative to the sensor. The non-contact design improves reliability and durability, and it can be used in many harsh environments.

The sensor is easy to install and provides flexibility with a wide range of air gap tolerance. It also has a self-diagnostic feature to provide predictive maintenance feedback and reduce downtime. Honeywell SPS-A Series SMART Arc Position Sensors are offered with 100° and 180° sensing ranges and provide an analog voltage output. The SMART Arc CAN sensors have a 145° sensing range and a digital output to a CAN interface.
