DESCRIPTION The SMART Position Sensor is one of the most durable, adaptable, and lightweight linear position sensors available in the industry, enabling highly accurate motion control and improving operation efficiency and safety. Its simple, noncontact design eliminates mechanical failure mechanisms, reducing wear and tear, improving reliability and durability, and minimizing downtime. The SMART Position Sensor is a non-contacting sensing solution for absolute position sensing with enhanced accuracy. It senses the position of a magnet relative to the sensor in one of two available sensing ranges: 0 to 100 0 to 180 Why is the SMART Position Sensor smart? SMART means that this is a sensor that can essentially think for itself. SMART Position Sensors provide a self-diagnostics feature and data gathering for enhanced reliability and closed-loop feedback control. They use a patented combination of an ASIC (ApplicationSpecific Integrated Circuit) and an array of MR (magnetoresistive) sensors to accurately and reliably determine the position of a magnet attached to a moving object so that the object’s position can be determined or controlled. The MR array measures the output of the MR sensors mounted along the magnet’s direction of travel. The output and the MR sensor sequence determine the nearest pair of MR sensors to the center of the magnet location. The output of these two MR sensors is then used to determine the position of the magnet between them. With this sensor, Honeywell has utilized MR technology through the ASIC at a level never before accomplished. Other configurations are in development. VALUE PROPOSITIONS ( = competitive differentiator) Reliable, durable: Non-contact design reduces wear and tear, improving reliability and durability, minimizing downtime Easy to install: Installation takes 4 steps (1: position device; 2: drill holes 3: mount sensor; 4: locate magnet/connect sensor) vs. up to 14 steps some competitive products require, simplifying installation and reducing set-up costs Rugged: As there are no moving parts within sensor, Honeywell utilizes unique packaging materials that make it resistant to vibration, shock, and extreme temperatures Flexible: Air gap tolerance of 7,8 ±2,5 mm [0.307 ±0.098 in] (100°) and 8,5 ±2,5 mm [0.338 ±0.098 in] (180°) between sensor and magnet expands application use Cost effective: Adaptable, non-contacting design allows customers to eliminate unnecessary connections for installation, thereby reducing installation steps/time and components Accurate: 100° configuration accurately measures values down to 0.06°while the 180° configuration accurately measures values down to 0.11° Adaptable: Electronics on board allow for flexible packaging and component compatibility with existing systems Lightweight: Lighter in weight than optical encoders Self-diagnostics feature can reduce equipment downtime by providing predictive maintenance input Combined patented MR sensor and ASIC technology provides enhanced differentiation and performance IP67, IP69K sealing allow use in many harsh applications RoHS-compliant materials meet Directive 2002/95/EC Military Remote weapon systems elevation Transportation Aerial work lift platform, front end loader and Chassis suspension systems position height digger/excavator boom position Military vehicle door position Scissor lift position Refuse truck lift and automatic reach arm position Mobile crane steering Aerospace: Ground-based solar panels elevation and azimuth Ground-based satellite dish elevation and azimuth Timber harvester/processor equipment cutter arm angle On-board loader weighing system position Medical: Robotically-assisted surgery equipment position Industrial Patient bed elevation Telescoping conveyor elevation Power generation contact angle Rail-road crossing arms position For more information on these potential applications, please see the application note “SMART Position Sensor, 100 and 180 Arc Configurations”.
