FuelTech 5005100083 Hall Effect RPM Speed Sensor
Product Information
The Sensor Hall is a Hall effect device designed for applications that require ferrous edge detection or near zero-speed sensing. It provides a sinking output current. The sensor has the following features:
- From near zero speed up to 15 kHz sensing capability
- Plastic flange-mount housing
- Compatible with unregulated power supply
- IP67 ingress protection
- Typical air gap of 1.5 mm
Product Usage Instructions
Installation
For optimal performance, it is recommended to use targets made from low carbon cold rolled steel. Other factors that may affect the sensor’s performance include gear tooth height and width, space between the teeth, shape of the teeth, and thickness of the target. As a general guideline, consider using a target with the minimum parameters provided below. However, testing for the specific application is necessary:
| Tooth Height | Tooth Width | Distance between Teeth | Target Thickness |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5.0 mm (.200) | 2.5 mm (.100) | 10 mm (.400) | 6.35 mm (.250) |

Installation
For best results, we recommend targets made from low carbon cold rolled steel. Other factors that influence sensor performance include gear tooth height and width, space between the teeth, shape of the teeth and thickness of the target. As a general guideline, consider a target with minimum parameters as shown below. Note that smaller dimensions may work, but testing for the application is required.
| Tooth Height | 5,0 mm (.200”) |
|---|---|
| Tooth Width | 2,5 mm (.100”) |
| Distance between Teeth | 10 mm (.400”) |
| Target Thickness | 6,35 mm (.250”) |
