Versions are available that can provide quadrature (bi-directional) or single
direction output. Both Hall Effect and Magneto-Resistive sensors are true zero-speed sensors. Magneto-Resistive
sensors, because of their higher sensitivity, are better suited for sensing ferrous metal targets at substantially
longer distances; up to .250" or greater. The tradeoff is that they are more susceptible to producing false
pulses from inductive fields. This might make them unsuitable for applications where they will be in close proximity
to large motors or generators, etc. These sensors are built on a custom basis to satisfy specific application
requirements.

Intrinsically Safe Magneto-Resistive Sensors
- Intrinsically Safe sensors are certified for use in both North America (CSA with NRTL/C) and Europe (ATEX). Our
certification allows us to make Intrinsically Safe versions of almost any MSI sensor or to customize a sensor to
suit your application.
Custom Magnetic Sensors
- At MSI we welcome the opportunity to develop a product specifically suited to your application or to modify an
existing product to suit your needs. We have extensive experience in designing custom products and pride ourselves
on the ability to provide high quality custom products at reasonable prices. |
