Position Sensor Explained...
Click here to download detailed Position Sensor Information.

Implementation of state of the art automated laboratory research and computer controlled instrumentation technology has been restricted by conventional valve technology. This gap has occurred due to the inability of valves to transmit a signal to confirm the valves' exact mechanical state.

NResearch, the innovator in state of the art valve design and manufacturing techniques, has successfully bridged this gap by developing a patented Position Sensor to provide independent electrical verification of the valves' mechanical condition.

Position Sensor contact springs maintain continuous electrical contact with the armature which is electrically insulated from the solenoid housing in the de-energized position. Confirmed contact between the armature and solenoid housing completes an electrical circuit in the energized position.

This series of steps results in a precise electrical indication of the mechanical state of the valve without any degradation due to hysteresis or mechanical losses.
