Penny + Giles, a business group of
Curtiss-Wright Controls, has
continued the development of its
SRH500 range of contactless rotary
position sensors, adding two CAN
bus interface versions.

The SRH520CN is a development
of the SRH501/2P. It integrates
additional electronics to provide
either J1939 or CANopen options
according to ISO/DIS 11898. Both
have a 14 bit non-contact Hall effect
sensor offering 0.022° resolution.

Position sensors with integrated
CAN interfaces, such as the
SRH520CN, avoid cost-intensive I/O
or gateway modules.

The J1939 version is factory
programmed to offer Direction,
Baud Rate, Node ID and Frame Rate
parameters. The CANopen version
offers either Baud Rate or Node ID
parameters, but is customer
configurable to the CIA standard DS
301 protocol and supports the device
profile for DS 406 encoders.

A technical datasheet is available.
