IRVINE,
Calif., – Duncan
Electronics, a division of BEI Technologies, Inc., has
developed a fully sealed, harsh environment rotary position
sensor. This sensor can be used in both position feedback
and operator input applications. The device is rated to
meet the requirements of International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) 529 for Enclosure Protection IP66 AND
IP67.
 This new generation
sensor assembly offers a very slim design. It can withstand
over 1 million full rotation cycles and 5 million dither
cycles. The device is fully sealed and is impervious to
contamination and moisture. The sensor can withstand temperatures
as high as 125°C with continuous operation. The all
plastic (Valox ™) construction is ideally suited
for use in the harshest industrial and commercial corrosive
environments.
BEI Duncan
has satisfied the need for low profile, high performance
sensor packages to meet the demanding requirements in new
position feedback applications. The 9850 Series offers
numerous standard and custom options including dual-output,
sealed integral interface to Packard Electric METRI-Pack
connectors, and a low profile.
Twelve
standard models offer a choice of 180 or 120 mechanical
rotation with round or slotted mounting holes for optimal
installation alignment. The performance features coupled
with the flexibility of design allow it to be easily integrated
into a wide variety of existing and new applications. Pricing
starts at under $17.00 each in 1,000 piece quantities.
