Piher Sensing Systems' inductive arc position sensors are designed for heavy-duty applications such as tractors, excavators, and loaders. Rather than relying on magnets, inductive sensors detect the position of a solid metal target that can be easily integrated into existing mechanical structures.

In addition to exceptional accuracy, IP67 and IP69K protection ratings combined with high temperature tolerance make these absolute position sensors ideal for harsh environments in off-highway applications.

The arc design simplifies and streamlines assembly and calibration on the production line, reducing additional costs during the manufacturing process.

• True non-contact operation: No internal or external gears or linkages required; easy sensor assembly and calibration with zero lifetime wear.
• Stray magnetic field immunity: Inductive technology unaffected by electromagnetic stray fields; no shielding required.
• Unlimited mechanical life: Electronics separated from metal target, making service life virtually independent of rotation count.
• Compact, low-profile package: Sensor target integrable into existing applications; sensor itself housed in an extremely compact, low-profile package.
• Harsh environment suitability: Robust packaging protects sensor against dust, moisture, vibration, and extreme temperatures for the most demanding environments.
• Customizable on demand: Available with custom mechanical designs, programmable transfer functions, switching outputs, various output protocols, and redundancy levels.

• Excavator boom position
• Articulated vehicle steering position
• Skid steer arm/bucket position
