Novotechnik - Very Compact Touchless Angle Sensors - Single Ch. or Redundant

The sensor housing is less than 1.6 x 1.1 x 0.3 in. Six measurement ranges available are from 0 to 30° to 0 to 360°.

Novotechnik, U.S. introduces the RFD 4000 Series of angle sensors are designed for applications that have tight space requirements, benefit from shaft-free magnetic sensing or require redundancy. The sensor housing is less than 1.6 x 1.1 x 0.3 in. Six measurement ranges available are from 0 to 30° to 0 to 360°.


Model options include single channel, partial or full 2-channels sensor redundancy. Independent linearity of the RFD 4000 series is ±0.5% of full scale and repeatability is 0.1°. Operating temperature range os -40° to +125°C. The sensors are sealed to IP 67, IP 68 or IP 69 depending on version.

Output interface options include 0.25 to 4.75 V DC or 0.5 to 4.5 V DC. RSK-3200 Series sensors are extremely durable with MTTF of over 500 years.

All units meet seven EMC standards for immunity to EMI including ISO 11452 for road vehicles. See data sheet for details.

Nion: Next-level time-of-flight

The new Nion 3D camera advances Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology with exceptional resolution, speed, and industrial robustness. Designed for demanding applications such as logistics, warehousing, industrial automation, and robotics, Nion delivers high-resolution depth data with real-time performance for faster, safer, and more flexible operations. At its core is the 1.2-megapixel Time-of-Flight sensor AF0130 from onsemi's Hyperlux ID family, offering up to four times the resolution of conventional VGA-based ToF cameras and significantly higher data density. Active 940-nm laser illumination ensures accurate and stable measurements in low-light conditions, artificial lighting, and even direct sunlight. With an IP67-rated housing, Nion is built for reliable operation in dusty, wet, and thermally challenging industrial environments. A user-friendly API with IDS peak support and compliance with the GigE Vision standard enable fast integration and flexible deployment in high-resolution 3D applications. The Nion 3D camera is now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems.
