General
Zettlex inductive position sensors offer many benefits:-
- Non-contact - high reliability and long life
- Accurate - highly linear and repeatable
- Rugged - able to withstand even harsh environments
- Economical - no need to pay for bearings, bushes, housings that you don't need
- Easy fitting - no need for precision fitting to host equipment
- Readiliy customised - sensors can be made to suit individual requirements
- Compact & Lightweight.
The sensors can be applied in many market sectors including industrial controls, consumer electronics, medical, defence, automotive and aerospace.
Applications cover 3 main groups: displacement sensors, user interfaces, servo & motor controls.
The term 'position sensor' covers the terms
- linear sensor, linear transducer, linear transmitter, linear encoder, level sensor, linear transducer
