Angle, Linear Position Measuring (12733)

Angle and linear position measuring sensors use capacitive, Hall effect, inductive, LVDT, LVIT, magnetoresistive, optical or resistive technology to determine the position of the sensor's actuator relative to a reference point. Angle position sensors are differentiated by their electrical or mechanical range in either a limited or continuous rotation range. Linear position sensors are differentiated by ranges from 0 up to 400 inches. Other considerations include actuator type, output type and signal, mounting type and percent linearity.
