Hall Effect Sensors - Minature Vane Sensor Plastic Body

AV vane operated integral magnet position sensors are operated by passing a ferrous vane through the gap between the Hall sensor and the magnet, shunting the magnetic flux away from the sensor. AVs can be used as limit switches by operating with a single large vane; as tachometer sensors by using toothed wheels; or as synchronizing elements by using cams or sectors. AV Series have many features in common such as:

• Operation by a low cost, easy to fabricate ferrous vane
• Magnet and sensor incorporated in same rugged package
• Sealed construction . . . unaffected by dust or dirt
• 0 to 100 kHz operating speed . . . no minimum speed of operation
• On and Off times programmable by vane dimensioning
• Precision mechanical operating characteristics
