Amphenol Piher PSCM Multiturn Rotary Sensors
Amphenol Piher PSCM Multiturn Rotary Sensors are non-contacting multiturn rotary position sensors based on hall-effect technology. These sensors are ideal for substituting wire-actuated encoders by translating a linear movement into an angular position. The PSCM sensors are configurable with 720° to 11.520° (up to 32 revolutions) electrical angular angles and support low and high-voltage power supply. The rotary sensors consist of a high level of ingress protection, vibration, and temperature resistance. These rotary sensors are cost-effective replacements for absolute encoders. Typical applications include industrial/ machine tools, off-highway vehicles, and material handling.
Features
