Novotechnik - New Angle Sensors With CANOpen Output
RFC4800 Series now features a CANopen ouput version that is CiA DS-301 compliant.
Southborough, MA… Novotechnik, U.S. introduces the RFC4800 Series of touchless programmable rotary angle sensors that provide absolute, rotary position. Their magnetic technology makes measurements through air and non-magnetic materials.
RFC4800 Series now features a CANopen ouput version that is CiA DS-301 compliant.
The RFC4800 Series utilizes a magnetic pickup to provide a touchless measurement range of 0 to 360°. Key specifications include ingress protection from liquids and dust to the IP 69K standard, resolution of 14 bits, repeatability of 0.36° and independent linearity of ±0.5 %.
A magnetic pickup mounts to a shaft on users application with seven different size markers available for dimensional flexibility and to optimize detection for different applications.
A good degree of customization is built into the RFC4800 Series. Offset, scale, direction of rotation, steps over position measurement range, reporting of speed by channel, limit switches and their initial state as well as baud rate are all programmable.
RFC4800 Series sensors with CANOpen output have an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. Cable and connector versions are available.

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.
