Industrial and motorsport angle sensors
Novotechnik, U.S. announces three versions of the SP 2800 Series of rotary position sensors—industrial, redundant channel industrial and motorsport. The industrial version is offered in three standard electrical ranges: 0° to 100, 308 or 345° and custom ranges. It is sealed against dust, dirt and water ingress to IP 65 and repeatability is to ≤ 0.03°. […]
Miniature laser sensors with IO-Link provide greater flexibility and control
Baumer has announced new O300 miniature laser sensors with IO-Link for the reliable detection of very small objects and gaps. With their IO-Link integration, O300 laser sensors are Industry 4.0-ready. IO-Link allows the quick and easy configuration of sensors for all applications using standard network components. In addition, additional data, e.g. for predictive maintenance processes, […]
Miniature shock accelerometers feature small size and flexible, integral cable
PCB has released two new miniature piezoelectric accelerometers. They are small, single axis ICP voltage output with measurement ranges of +/- 5,000 g (model 352A91) and +/- 20,000 g (model 352A92). Both are in a similar package with low mass under 0.006 ounces (0.17 grams) and cover a broad frequency range of 1.2 to 10,000 […]
