P500 Rotary Position Sensor

The P500 RIPS (Rotary Inductive Position Sensor) is a durable, affordable, high accuuracy rotary sensor designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications. The P500 is supplied with the output calibrated to the angle required by the customer, between 20 and 160 degrees. The sensor provides a linear output proportional with angle of rotation. There is a machined registration mark to identify the calibrated mid point.
