Do you know everything about multiturn sensors and the benefits of GMR-effect?

Multiturn sensors in short

If not, here’s a short summary.

Multiturn sensors with GMR-effect (Giant-Magneto-Resistance) provide absolute position data. They do not need reference signals, power supply or buffer battery to detect the turns. Pretty smart, right?

So where is a multiturn sensor with GMR a good idea? Everywhere in applications where you need to know the position if the power supply fails.

Or it is placed in an inconvenient place where it is difficult to reset after power failure.

Mikkelsen’s longtime partner – Novotechnik – are super experienced in sensors that last and fit into almost every environment. One of the contributing factors to long life is the contactless technology. Through magnetism the sensor measures without being worn so wear parts are history.

Other features:

• Measuring range up to 5760° (16 turns)
• Resolution 16 bit
• High IP
• Miniature design
• Full and hollow shaft variants
