General Information
Honeywell’s SNG-Q Series Quadrature Speed and Direction
Sensors are designed to provide both speed and direction
information. Speed information is provided from digital square
wave outputs; direction is provided using a quadrature output
with signals 90° phase shifted from each other. With the
quadrature output, target direction is determined by output
lead/lag phase shifting.
The product is designed for applications where enhanced
accuracy is required to detect small target features. This
accuracy is enabled by dual differential Hall-effect sensor IC
technology. The SNG-Q Series is designed for a wide operating
temperature range, robust electrical noise immunity and
industry leading environmental sealing capability.
This product includes an O-ring seal for pressure applications,
and a fixed mounting flange for simple installation using one
fastener.
