The RFC4800 series of touchless angle sensors measure angular position up to 360°, revolution counter and speed

The RFC4800 series of touchless angle sensors measure angular position up to 360°, revolution counter and speed. Features include programmable zero-point offset, measurement averaging and sign of rotational direction. The series has a resolution of 14 bits across 360°, repeatability of 0.36° and independent linearity of ±0.5% of full scale. It uses IO-Link, which helps to makes wiring easier by requiring just three wires to transmit measured values and status information simultaneously. Other output interfaces include analog voltage and current, as well as digital outputs options—SSI, SPI, incremental and CANopen. Sensors are sealed up to IP69K and operating temperature range is -40 to 125 °C.
