Angle Position Sensors

AN1 Sensors

Intrinsically Linear Angle Position Sensor

Description

The AN1 Series sensors are one-piece, intrinsically linear contact angle position sensors. The sensors operate through the use of

Hall Effect technology with magnetic fields generated by permanent magnets. They provide a linear change in voltage output

(ratiometric to the input voltage) corresponding to an angular rotation of the input shaft.

Features

Typical Applications



Patented intrinsically linear angle position sensor (ILAPS)



Magnet/sensor orientation provides linear output from 5° to

85° of rotation without the need for electrical compensation



Return spring provides resistance to CCW motion



Fully encapsulated electronics



RoHS compliant



IP67



Implement (fork lift, agricultural trailer hitch,

etc.) position sensing



Steer, throttle by wire



Gear selection



Zero-contact encoder alternative
