Siko Magnetic sensor MSAC506
Sku: SIK-MSAC506
Absolute-rotative, SSI interface, resolution max. 16 bits
Product Information
A combination of the MSAC506 magnetic sensor and the MRAC506 magnetic ring forms a system for absolute angle measurement. The MSAC506 sensor has an SSI interface with a resolution of 12 … 16 bit. There is also an analogue output (1 VSS) with 64 periods for dynamic position tracking. The sensor has an LED for distance monitoring

Industry 4.0
In most cases, data exchange with the magnetic encoders is limited to the exchange of process data. In addition to the process data, intelligent drives provide additional information that can be evaluated for condition monitoring up to predictive maintenance:
| Process Data | Smart Value | Smart Function |
|---|---|---|
| Actual position | — | Plausibility monitoring |
Hint for mounting
Please ensure correct allignment of both system components to each other during mounting of sensor and magnetic ring.
| A, Sensor/ring reading distance (active measurement area) |
0.1 … 1.0 mm |
| B, Lateral offset | ±1.5 mm |
| C, Misalignment | <±0.5° |
