Sensor measures speed and direction

Niagara Falls, N.Y.— The MRS sensors introduced by Rechner Electronics can operate at speeds of 20 kHz and can distinguish the direction of shaft rotation. Multi-directional shaft encoder functions can be performed with a single sensor. A two-color LED changes color according to direction of rotation.

Niagara Falls, N.Y.— The MRS sensors introduced by Rechner Electronics can operate at speeds of 20 kHz and can distinguish the direction of shaft rotation. Multi-directional shaft encoder functions can be performed with a single sensor. A two-color LED changes color according to direction of rotation. The sensors have short-circuit protection and are available in 12-or 18 mm dia. The housings are polyamide or stainless steel and are rated IP67. Rechner Electronics Industries
