Linear position sensor RH5 series

The R-Series V RH5 is the new generation of high performance rod-style sensors designed for demanding in-cylinder applications. This sensor is backward compatible and features increased operating temperature up to +85 °C (+185 °F), enhanced shock and vibration resistance, and improved performance with high accuracy and reliability. It supports multi-position measurement with up to 30 magnets and offers a variety of outputs including Analog, SSI, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP™, POWERLINK, and EtherCAT®. Additional status information can be output via the TempoLink® smart assistant or TempoGate® smart assistant. Now also available with a flexible sensing element!
