The Sensing and Control Business of Honeywell has introduced the SR16/SR17 Series Hall Effect Vane Sensors, designed for speed- and position-detection applications.

The cost-effective product offers reliability and repeatability in a compact, rugged plastic package.

Typical applications include fitness equipment; hospital beds; infusion pumps; indicators for post office bins, conveyors and security door latches; printers; and computer storage devices.

The solid-state SR16/SR17 sensors contain the robust SS443 Hall effect sensor, making them unsusceptible to humidity, dust, or IR light interference.

They are available in two mechanical mounting styles and several methods of termination, including flying leads, connector or PCB mount.

Operating temperature is -20 to +85C (-4 to +185 degrees F).
