SRS280 Sealed Rotary Position Sensor

The SRS280 sealed rotary sensor has been specially developed to meet the harsh operating requirements of today´s automotive and motorsport markets, with a number of innovative design features incorporated to overcome the shortcomings of existing products from other manufacturers.

  • Angles from 10 to 350° in 10° increments
  • Crush-proof mounting flange with steel inserts
  • Choice of three shaft attachments
  • Duplex-shaft bearing support system
  • Integrally moulded sheathed cable assembly
  • Cable length 0.5m or 2m
  • Sealed to IP50 or IP68
  • Rapid availability – we can supply any one of 35 different angles, three shaft styles, two sealing options and two cable options – 420 different sensor configurations – all available faster than our competitors.

The SRS280 uses the proven long life Penny & Giles hybrid potentiometer track technology (conductive plastic on wire), providing high stability under extremes of temperature and humidity, with virtually infinite resolution and a life in excess of 20-million operations.

The Penny & Giles product range comprises a broad selection of joysticks, sensors and solenoids for use on commercial vehicles and industrial equipment.

The products are the legacy of the Penny & Giles company founded in 1956 and acquired by Curtiss Wright in 2002.

The present-day product range includes: linear and rotary position sensors; LVDT and RVDT transducers; joysticks; studio faders; digital panel meters; and solenoid actuators for a wide range of industrial motion control applications.

Their joystick controls are suitable for commercial vehicle applications for both on- and off-highway use. These include construction and agricultural vehicles, material handling and other specialty vehicles. They are also suitable for use with industrial equipment such as robotics. Their finger-operated joystick controllers are designed for the smooth, precise control of critical functions in a variety of industrial applications where a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) is required. They also have rugged joystick controllers are designed for the more demanding installations found within operator cabs for off-highway vehicles. A wide range of linear position sensors, tilt sensors, rotary sensors, linear displacement transducers and linear potentiometers that offer distinct advantages in reliability, stability and compactness.
