Applications in the industrial, transportation, medical, military and aerospace industries are the target for Honeywell’s SMART position sensor now available from Aerco. The durable and adaptable non-contact sensors provide accurate, safe and efficient motion control. The SMART (Superior Measurement, Accuracy, Reliability, Thinking) sensors are small and lightweight.

They have a simple non-contact design that eliminates mechanical failure, reduces wear and improves machine reliability.

It is an absolute position sensor that senses the position of a magnet relative to the sensor using a patented combination of an ASIC and an array of magneto-resistive sensors.   

Available in linear, arc or rotary configurations SMART sensors are lightweight, rugged, easy to install and are offered in a wide range of sizes and sensing distances.  They are highly shock and vibration resistant and are sealed to IP67 and IP69.  An in-built self-diagnostic feature ensures machine downtime is reduced to a minimum.
