Product overview

The M-Series Model MH sensor is designed with the “mobile” world 
in mind.  The Model MH sensor is validated in the field by customers 
worldwide. Performance is second-to-none with high EMI resistance  
of 200 V/m. Ruggedness is “designed in”; 100 g shock and 25 g vibra-
tion rating.  The model MH CAN Safety sensor can be fully sealed and 
embedded in a cylinder to ensure a long operating life.  

The absolute, non-contact Temposonics position sensor with CAN 
Safety reaches a level of 95% for SFF at a fault to ground of 0 for the 
hardware.  Since they are approved for SIL 2 level, they have an aver-
age probability for Failure (PFH) in the range of ≥10

-7

 to <10

-6

 per year.
