Variable Reluctance Sensors - Premium
 

  Premium Variable Reluctance Sensors Brochure

 

For harsh environments and years of reliable service, MSI Premium sensors are your best option. They are hermetically sealed for resistance to moisture and other atmospheric contamination and can withstand repeated thermocycling in temperatures ranging from -450°F to 450°F. They are the sensors of choice for use in cryogenics for their ability to operate dependably at extremely low temperatures for long periods of time. The ruggedized version of this type undergo a unique internal construction process that enables them to better tolerate rigorous conditions that would cause other sensors to fail (e.g., excessive vibration, impact, and repeated thermocycling).


Product Specifications

In addition to the models specified, MSI can make custom Premium series VR sensors in other lengths, diameters, configurations, mounting threads (e.g., metric) as well as with different operating specifications and options like pigtail leads, NPT threads for explosion proof applications, etc. to satisfy special requirements. The products listed below are a sampling of our standard grade sensors, and are also available in the ruggedized grade. If you do not see a sensor that meets your needs, please contact us and we would be happy to make a product that meets your specifications.

Standard Features and Specifications
