Novotechnik, U.S. introduces a selection of four magnetic marker types designed to suit various mounting applications for their RFC- and RFD- Series of touchless rotary angle sensors that provide absolute, rotary position.
These two sensor families utilize a magnetic pickup to provide a touchless measurement range of 0° to 360° and makes measurements through air and non-magnetic materials.
The first type of Z-Series of magnetic pickup is incorporated into an M8 machine bolt and can be directly screwed into a rotating component or secured by mounting nut. The second type is donut shaped and radially mounts to a cylindrical shaft which it slides over using a threaded set screw. An axial mounting magnet is secured in the center of two mounting holes and is mounted on a shaft
with seven different size markers available for dimensional flexibility and to optimize detection for different applications. The fourth type has two magnet options. One mounting surface measuring 4 x 8 mm and the other 4.5 x 14 mm—both are designed to be glued directly to the applications rotating part.
All four types of Z-Series magnetic sensor markers operate by ideally being centered over the RFC- or RDF- Series measuring sensor with varying offsets and separation allowance specifications depending on the magnetic marker type and sensor selected. Novotechnik has a data sheet detailing the different configurations possible and a white paper primer on touchless rotary sensors and measurement available on their website.
