RTY Series Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors
2 Honeywell Sensing and Control
TRANSPORTATION:
Figure 2. Boat Engine Tilt/Trim Position
Function: May be used to sense boat engine tilt/trim position.
Customer Benefits: Accurate position reporting helps the
operator to maintain peak performance of the boat and
protects against propeller damage. The IP67 rating, EMC
testing, and AMP seal connector protect against marine
conditions. The 35 M life cycle helps reduce end user
replacement requirements.
Figure 3. Throttle Position (trucks, buses, off-road vehicles,
industrial/construction/agricultural vehicles and equipment,
cranes)
Function: May be used to sense throttle plate angle.
Customer Benefits: Accurate throttle position can enhance
fuel economy and engine performance. The IP67 rating and
EMC testing meet customer requirements. The 35 M life cycle
helps reduce warranty concerns.
Figure 4. Bus/Truck Suspension/Kneeling Position
Function: May be used to sense angular travel of the
suspension system.
Customer Benefits: Accurate sensing validates the correct
height for the application’s system requirements, potentially
aiding vehicle ingress/egress (liability), trailer height for
warehouse docking (faster turns and liability), and suspension
performance monitoring (diagnostic check). The IP67 rating
and EMC testing meet customer requirements. The 35 M life
cycle helps reduce warranty concerns.
INDUSTRIAL:
Figure 5. Irrigation Pivot Control
Function: May be used to sense irrigation equipment
steering angle.
Customer Benefits: Accurate positioning delivers water
where it is needed, potentially reducing water consumption
and increasing crop yield. The IP67 rating, EMC testing, and
AMP seal connector protect against dust and wet conditions.
The 35 M life cycle helps reduce end user replacement
requirements and OEM warranty exposure. The wide
temperature range (-40 ºC to 125 ºC [-40 ºF to [257 ºF]) of the
sensor allows for use in hot and cold environments.
