New Speed Sensor Offers Expanded Operating Range
Minneapolis, MN-August 26, 2003-Electro-Sensors, Inc. has introduced the HE950 sensor. The HE950 incorporates dual Hall-Effect sensing and signal processing that make it capable of operating across a broad range of target sizes. A single sensor size can be used for virtually any size target. In addition, its larger gap distance and high frequency range make it ideal for high speed monitoring of gear-teeth, spokes, or keyways.
The HE950 produces a digital pulse signal for use with speed switches, tachometers, counters, and signal conditioners, or as a direct pulse input into PLCs. Its internal dual Hall-Effect sensors combine with signal processing to provide true zero-speed operation up to 12 kHz. This allows the HE950 to be used at higher shaft speeds than many conventional proximity sensors.
When used with Electro-Sensors speed switches, HE950 sensors provide feedback enabling more efficient process control and safety, guarding against potential problems such as machine failure, product waste, or process downtime.
The HE950 sensor is simple to install and can be mounted up to 1500ft from the control unit. Powered by 5-24VDC, it provides an NPN Open Collector output, and is packaged in a rugged aluminum NEMA 4 housing with a plated steel mounting bracket.
