Time of flight optical sensors determine displacement and distance by measuring the time it takes light to travel from the instrument to a target and back. Search by Specification | Learn More
Linear position sensors is a general search form for all linear position / displacement detection product areas. Search by Specification | Learn More
Optical time domain reflectometers (OTDR) measure the elapsed time and intensity of light reflected along an optical fiber. They are useful tools for locating problems in an optical network as they can compute the distance to breaks or attenuation. Search by Specification | Learn More
Position probes measure the position of a target surface, usually with a high degree of accuracy. This search form covers many different linear position products. Search by Specification | Learn More
Optical triangulation position sensors use reflected waves to pinpoint position and displacement. The source of these waves may be a light emitting diode (LED), infrared (IR) light, or laser. Search by Specification | Learn More
Rotary position sensors include potentiometers, resolvers and a variety of magnetic and capacitive technologies. Sensors are designed for angular displacement less than one turn or for multiturn displacement. Search by Specification | Learn More
Magnetostrictive position sensors are non-contact linear position sensors that use the momentary interaction of two magnetic fields to produce a strain pulse that moves along a waveguide. One field is from a magnet that moves along the outside of the waveguide. The other field is from the waveguide itself. Search by Specification | Learn More
Ultrasonic linear position sensors and switches use ultrasonic waves in combination with light and frequency readings for position and displacement sensing. Search by Specification | Learn More
Tilt sensors, switches and inclinometers generate an artificial horizon and measure angular tilt with respect to this horizon. They are used in cameras, aircraft flight controls, automobile security systems, and special switches. Search by Specification | Learn More
Capacitive linear position sensors are devices that sense position / displacement using capacitance technology. Search by Specification | Learn More
Fiber optic linear position sensors use fiber optic technology to sense position and displacement. Search by Specification | Learn More
Magnetoresistive linear position sensors and switches have a linear resistance output signal representing the distance an object is from a reference point. Search by Specification | Learn More
Eddy current linear position sensors detect the distance from a target by using magnetic fields generated by a reference and sensing coils. Search by Specification | Learn More
Level sensors are used to detect liquid or powder levels, or interfaces between liquids. There are two basic level-measurement types: continuous and point or multi-point. Search by Specification | Learn More
Hall effect position sensors are non-contact devices that convert energy from a magnetic field into an electrical signal. They use the Hall effect, a voltage caused by current-flow in the presence of a magnetic field. Search by Specification | Learn More
