Speed Sensors
High-integrity rotational speed sensing for rail and industrial applications
Speed Sensors are designed to provide accurate and reliable rotational speed detection in demanding rail and industrial environments. Using Hall Effect technology, the sensors detect speed from ferromagnetic steel target wheels, with alternative designs available for magnetic targets featuring alternating North and South poles.
Developed for applications where reliability and signal integrity are critical, Rowe Hankins speed sensors support a wide range of installation and system requirements while maintaining consistent performance in harsh operating conditions.
