The variety of applications in the industrial marketplace require increasingly sophisticated position sensing products. These tough environments demand robust sensors capable of withstanding constant vibration, high shock and extreme temperature ranges. From highly automated production machinery operating at rapid speeds to sensitive medical equipment, industrial applications demand position control with pinpoint accuracy. BEI Duncan has met these tough demands with sensors capable of long service-life, high reliability and repeatability. We can provide sensors suitable for normal 0°C to 85°C operating environments, or more robust sensors built with proprietary materials capable of withstanding temperatures from -40°C to 300°C. With our reputation for manufacturing durability, BEI Duncan has become the supplier of choice for customers seeking position sensing solutions for the toughest possible environments. Accreditation to the strict quality standard of ISO-9001: 2000 provides peace of mind to our customers and demonstrates our commitment to continually provide improvement.
BEI Duncan provides termination options that include integral connectors and surface mount or flying leads. These options allow customers maximum flexibility in choosing the connector best suited to their requirement. Our Hall Effect Sensors can interface to the end of a shaft or provide a precise fit over the shaft, accommodating virtually every installation requirement. Standard Hall Effect models feature redundant outputs and operating capabilities up to 85°C with options as high as 150°C. For further versatility, BEI Duncan provides cost-effective, custom adapted solutions that address customer specific requirements for angular resolution, electrical angle, CAN Bus or PWM outputs, switch function, custom transfer functions, linearity, termination, operational life, environmental requirements, packaging requirements and more.
As an alternative to pre-packaged sensors, BEI Duncan also delivers individual element and contact components, typically provided jointly as an element and contact assembly. OEMS can fit these assemblies directly into their existing design thereby reducing packaging costs and optimizing tight spacing constraints.
BEI Duncan sensor and encoder solutions are found in a wide variety of both light and heavy-duty industrial applications. Typical applications include medical, photographic, petrochemical exploration, security systems, industrial lift machines, robotics, instrumentation, joystick controls, office automation, semiconductor manufacturing, and more. |
