Amphenol Piher MSC-360 Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors

Amphenol Piher MSC-360 Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors are lightweight and miniature (only 21mm in size) while delivering high performance with up to 360° electrical angle (without dead zone) and 12-bit resolution. Amphenol Piher MSC-360 Hall-Effect Rotary Position Sensors also provide 7 million cycles of rotational life as well as electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection. MSC-360 operates over a -40°C to +125°C temperature range and provides IP67 sealing, making the series versatile and cost-effective for applications in demanding environments.
