Rotary position sensors
2 November 2005
Passive Components
Murata's SV01 series is a line of ultra-low profile type rotary position sensors that measure 12,0 x 11,0 x 2,1 mm. These angle sensors have customisable output voltage characteristics - adaptable to electrical change with effective rotational angle and stepped output voltage.
They are suitable for drive motor angle detection, such as in airconditioner actuators, can be used as a long-life potentiometer, such as for a car airconditioner or instrument panel illumination adjustment switch, and are guaranteed for one million cycles of operation.
Rated for operation from -40 to 125°C, the standard resistance value is 10 kΩ and linearity is 2% typically. Rated voltage is 5 V d.c., rotational angle 333°, torque 2 mN.m max.
