55140-AP-02-A

The 55140-AP-02-A sensor from Honeywell is an analog Hall effect module designed for measuring the rotational speed of rotating components. It can detect movement of a target, the presence of a target, or both. The 55140-AP-02-A uses inductive proximity sensing technology to detect the presence of a target. The sensor is a three-wire module with an integrated Hall element that can detect the presence of a target in the range of 0.5mm to 8mm. It is ideal for use in a variety of applications, including: linear positioning, camshaft position sensing, valve position sensing, and other rotational speed applications.

The 55140-AP-02-A Hall effect module is a versatile and reliable sensor. It has features that make it suitable for high temperature, low noise, and medium speed applications. The integrated Hall element has a high sensitivity and is rated for use at temperatures up to 125°C. It has a dynamic range of 0.5mm to 8mm and a linearity of ±1% over the entire range. The module is available in both NPN (sinking) and PNP (sourcing) types and can be operated at supply voltages of 3V to 24V. It can be used in both AC and DC applications. The module is also offered with a choice of two different output configurations - one for analog operation and one for TTL operation.

The 55140-AP-02-A Hall effect module is easy to install and use. It can be wired directly to a microcontroller or another controller with a 3-pin port. It can also be used in a digital logic circuit. The output of the module can be monitored using an analog-to-digital converter, or by using the TTL output of the module. The two outputs can be used together to measure the position and rotational speed of components.

The working principle of the 55140-AP-02-A module is based on a Hall effect sensor. The Hall effect sensor is based on Faraday’s law of induction, which states that a voltage is induced in a conductor when it is moved in a magnetic field. In this sensor, the magnetic field is produced by a permanent magnet that is attached to the target object that is being measured. The Hall element, which is the heart of the sensor, generates a voltage that is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field that it detects. The output voltage of the sensor is then used to measure the target’s rotation, or position and speed.

The 55140-AP-02-A Hall effect module is an excellent sensor for applications that require the accurate measurement of rotational speed. It is a reliable, easy to use and versatile sensor that is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is designed for use in a variety of environments and can be used in both AC and DC applications. It has a wide dynamic range and is able to detect target positions in the range of 0.5mm to 8mm. It also offers both analog and TTL output options, making it suitable for a variety of applications.
