Explore other types of variable reluctance speed sensors

Value series VR speed sensors are epoxy encapsulated models that are most suitable for applications that do not have special environmental requirements (e.g., wide operating temperature range, hermeticity, atmospheric contamination, etc.). Standard models feature metal fronts to better protect the sensor internals from moisture intrusion (versus an epoxy encapsulated front). Connectors are welded to the sensor body, providing assurance that there will not be issues when installing mating connectors.

Standard Features and Specifications

• Two (2) standard body styles
• Variable reluctance (VR) type
• Epoxy encapsulation

Custom VR Sensors

In addition to the standard models shown above, epoxy encapsulated VR sensors are available in custom lengths, diameters, configurations, and mounting threads. Custom operating specifications (resistance, inductance, etc). are available, as well as options such as pigtail leads or NPT threading. Additional sensor customization options

We provide custom sensors on a regular basis and are happy to help develop a solution for your application, or a replacement sensor for an existing application. Please contact our engineering department at eng@motionsensors.com or 252-331-2080 to discuss your application requirements.
