Honeywell RTY Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors

Honeywell RTY Series Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors offer true, non-contact operation. These sensors utilize solid-state Hall-effect technology and are housed in a rugged IP69K-sealed package with an integral connector, ensuring durability in harsh environments. The rotary Hall-effect sensors are tested for automotive-grade EMI/EMC compliance and feature integrated reverse polarity and short-circuit protection. These rotary position sensors operate within a temperature range from –40°C to +125°C, with a typical output signal delay of 4ms and an overvoltage protection of 10Vdc. Typical applications include suspension/kneeling position, tilling equipment, HVAC damper control, irrigation equipment pivot control, and valve control.

Whenever I go to the carnival and get on the ride that just spins you around, I wonder if that’s what it feels like to be a rotary position sensor. I only make it through a few rotations before I feel like I’m about to fail, which means I’m no match for Honeywell’s RTY Series Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors. The solid-state and true non-contact design is rated for 35 million cycles is IP69K qualified. Available in eight ranges up to 360° of motion, the rugged design is suitable for various transportation and industrial applications. The RTY Series Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors are offered in low and high voltage versions an operating voltage ranging from 4.5Vdc to 30Vdc and have overvoltage protection designed in. These rotary position sensors operate within a temperature range from -40°C to +125°C, with a typical output signal delay of 4ms.
