Hall-effect Position Sensor 91840

The KYOCERA AVX Sensor 91840 is a compact Hall-effect angle sensor for precise, contactless rotary position measurement in demanding automotive and industrial environments. Designed with two analog output signals and a ±45° angle range, it supports reliable feedback for control units, actuators, pedals and machine controllers. Its 5 V supply, low current consumption and robust IP6K6/IP6K9K sealing concept make it suitable for harsh operating conditions. With stable voltage output, AMP connector compatibility and strong linearity, the 91840 enables durable motion feedback for vehicle platforms, off-highway equipment and industrial machinery requiring compact, redundant and low-maintenance angle sensing solutions.
