Type 6 Precision Through Hole

Type 6 Precision Through Hole

This range of rotary sensors is for precision angle measurement over a full 360° of rotation.  Sensors and targets both include large central holes that allow a shaft to pass through them, and have a balanced design for immunity to misalignment.
