Magnetic sensor MSAC506

Absolute-rotative, SSI interface, resolution max. 16 bits

SIKO Global, Magnetic sensor MSAC506
SIKO Global, Magnetic sensor MSAC506
The MSAC506 magnetic sensor together with the MRAC506 magnetic ring forms a system for absolute angle measurement. The MSAC506 sensor has an SSI interface with a resolution of 12 … 16 bits. There is also an analog output (1 VSS) with 64 periods for dynamic position detection. The sensor has an LED for distance monitoring.
  • Magnetic absolute encoder single-turn
  • Compact design
  • Resolution 12 … 16 bits
  • Additional analog Sin/Cos 1 VSS signals
  • Reading distance ≤1 mm
  • Works with MRAS506 magnetic ring
  • Industry 4.0 ready
