ELMA X4 family of rugged switches based on the latest Hall Effect sensor coding technology, provides enhanced reliability and performance where conventional switches would not survive, such as in the presence of dust and/or vibration. Device provides a 5-bit gray code output with 12 or 24 positions for improved resolution, as well as parallel analog and PWM outputs. Device is available in two indexing angles, either 30 or 15 degrees. Selectable switching torque, from 1.5N cm to 20N cm, is available and the indexing mechanism itself boasts a life of up to 100,000 switching cycles.
