Product Overview
The Piher PSC-360 is a cost-effective, non-contacting Hall-effect rotary position sensor designed for high-performance applications in harsh environments. It offers 360-degree absolute position feedback with an endless mechanical rotational angle and no dead band, retaining position on power loss. The sensor is highly adaptable and customizable, featuring programmable electrical angles (15 to 360 degrees), transfer functions, switch outputs, and various output protocols. Its true contactless operation, with no gears or mechanical interfaces, ensures ease of assembly, calibration, and limited wear, leading to a long product lifetime of up to 50 million cycles. Applications span industrial, transportation, marine, and home and building automation sectors, including robotics, autonomous vehicles, steering systems, and HVAC controls.
