New Low Power Rotary Position Sensor

Applications include robotics, battery powered devices, joy sticks and control valves.

Southborough, MA - Novotechnik U.S. introduces the Contelec Vert-X 21 LP Seriesof low power

sensors. These non-contact angle sensors consume only 300 μA of current at a power supply
level of 3.3 V.

Other key specifications for Vert-X 21 LP include 0 to 360° measurement range, 12-bit resolution,
repeatability to 0.1°, and maximum hysteresis of 0.2°. Power supply range is 1.8 V to 5.5 V. Output
voltage 10 to 90% of power supply is standard with other
percentage values available as an option.

Vert-X 21 LP Series sensors can be ordered as a simple 3 wire
angle sensor or a programmable version with up to two switch
outputs, custom measurement angle, start and end-point
settings, custom characteristic curve and/or sense of rotation.
They feature compact designs of less than 1 inch in diameter,
sealing to IP65 and life is greater than 360 million
movements.

Applications include robotics, battery powered devices, joy
sticks and control valves.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
