The new generation linear and angular position sensors from zf pursue new ways in terms of efficiency.
Automotive linear position sensor.
A position sensor may indicate absolute position location or relative position displacement in terms of linear travel rotational angle or three dimensional space.
The linear magnetic position sensor product family measures the linear movement of a multi pole magnetic strip.
The sensors operate through the use of hall effect technology with magnetic fields generated by permanent magnets.
Circular multi pole magnetic rings can also be used in rotary incremental rotation off axis applications.
Linear position sensing of a regulating valve.
Based on a modular system the sensor is available as an ang version for angular position measurements or as a lin version for linear position measurements.
From small angles up to full 360 absolute angle sensing.
Robust design in the engine vicinity.
This high precision product family allows the user to detect linear movement with a resolution as fine as 0 5μm.
Hall linear position sensor 3.
The inductive position sensors interface with low cost pcb based coils and simple metallic targets providing single chip design flexibility for rotary on axis end of shaft and off axis side shaft or through shaft sensors as well as linear and arc position sensors.
