TT Electronics OHB900 Hallogic Hall-Effect Sensors
TT Electronics / Optek OHB900 Hallogic Hall-Effect Sensors detect the presence or movement of ferrous materials without physical contact, enabling switching in automated and safety related systems. The OHB900 combines a hall-effect sensor and rare earth magnet in a plastic housing, with an open collector output that responds to magnetic flux changes when the slot opens or is blocked. These sensors offer a supply voltage from 4.5V to 25V and support sink currents up to 25mA. OHB900 sensors operate within a temperature range from -40°C to +150°C. Applications include assembly line automation, door sensing, end of travel detection, and machine automation.
