Aerospace Hall Effect Speed & Position Magnetic Sensors

What Types of Sensors are used in the Aerospace Industry?

Nearly all of Sensor Solutions' product lines can be utilized in aerospace applications.  We have provided OEM and custom solutions for a variety of aerospace applications since our company was formed in the 1990s.

Sensor Solutions Hall Effect Switches when paired with target magnets can be used as safety interlocks and to confirm aircraft components are properly positioned. 

Gear Detection Sensors provide one or more digital pulsing outputs for tracking rotational speed and position of moving components in aircraft engines and mechanical systems.

Analog Hall Sensors can be used to track relative proximity or alignment between moving components within aircraft.  And Angular Position Sensors can track the position of a rotating component.

Ferrous Metal Proximity Sensors with analog and/or digital outputs can be used in Aerospace applications for tracking the motion or position of ferrous metal components.
