FA5

FA5

  • Typical application areas: shipbuilding (e.g., drive shafts and flywheels)

  • Particularly good price-performance ratio

  • Robust design for risk-free installation and harsh environmental conditions, high resistance against shock and vibration

  • Very high immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI)

  • Robust design with high resistance to vibration and shock

  • Straight or lateral cable exit, available with cable protection system

Speed sensors of type FA5 are non-contacting 2-channel hall effect encoders with a stainless-steel sensor tube. This solution has been established on the market for a long time and has proven to be very effective in a wide range of applications.

The sensors are available with various output signals:
