Rotary position sensor
Type DST X510
For mobile hydraulic applications
The Danfoss DST X510 rotary position sensors
with shaft are designed for use in mobile
hydraulic applications.
Danfoss DST X510 series uses contactless Hall
technology with measurement ranges up to
360°.
The Sensors are designed for o-higway
applications and resistant to shock and
vibrations and with high electromagnetic
compatibility. They are E1 approved for onhighway applications. They comes with either
analogue, CANopen or SAE J1939 output.
Single and redundant sensor types are
available, making the complete portfolio
suitable for safetycritical applications.
Features
