The sensor consists of a Hall effect device, which is activated by a rare earth magnet embedded in the end of the internal lead screw. It has a supply voltage range of 3.8 to 24 volts DC and a digital current sinking output of up to 20 mA. An analog output option can be provided, as well as special cabling and connectors. Indicator HSI offers an optional home position indicator for its line of linear actuators. The home position indicator mounts on the rear sleeve of HSI's captive linear motors. This allows the user to identify start, stop or home positions of the actuator.
Contacts can be normally open or normally closed.
Multiple contact switches are also available.
