LINEAR AND ROTARY POSITION
Linear and Rotary Position
Position sensors respond to the movement or location of a target, such as a
molding press slide or a pulley shaft, by producing either a digital or an
analogue output correlated to its location. Honeywell position sensors include
digital and analogue Hall-effect position sensors, magnetoresistive digital
sensors and potentiometric rotary and linear sensors. Sensors are directly
compatible with other electronic circuits for application flexibility.
With the combined capabilities of three well-known brand names - Data
Instruments, Clarostat, Electro and New England Instruments - Honeywell the
group continuously strives to remain at the forefront of position sensing
technology. In this catalogue we present our range of Linear and Rotary
Position transducers and Torque Watch gauges, all suitable for use in
industrial environments.
