RTY Series Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors

Sensing and Control

INTRODUCTION

The RTY Series Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors provide

angle monitoring in harsh transportation and industrial

applications at a competitive cost.

These products use a magnetically biased, Hall-effect

integrated circuit (IC) to sense rotary movement of the actuator

shaft over a set operating range. Rotation of the actuator shaft

changes a magnet’s position relative to the IC. The resulting

flux density change is converted to a linear output.

The IC, together with conditioning and protection circuitry, and

the permanent magnet, is sealed in an IP67-qualified rugged

package for durability in most harsh environments.

Eight operating ranges (50°, 60°, 70°, 90°, 120°, 180°, 270°

and 360°) are tolerant to over-travel and allow use in most

common applications. Low voltage and high voltage versions

cover an input voltage range of 4.5 Vdc to 30 Vdc.

Most applications require no lever, and no brackets are

necessary.

Buy from a proven partner and supplier in the transportation

and industrial fields. Honeywell’s industry-leading capabilities

in research and development provide the customer with known

quality and support.

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.
