Control and protection circuits have relied on variable reluctance technology for years. With few components and no moving parts, the passive magnetic speed sensors can provide a signal from the inside of an aircraft engine at temperatures approaching 425 degrees C or from the hub of an automobile wheel at high shock and vibration. The advantage of these sensors are:
-High reliability
-Simple installation
-Long life due to no moving parts or contacts
-Self powered operation
-Wide variety of shapes and sizes
-Easy alignment
-Can be designed for almost any environment
-Due to their flexibility, you will find AI-Tek variable reluctance sensors in everything from -low-cost consumer products to highly-accurate automotive engine ignition systems to -flight-worthy aircraft engine controls.
