How can the Hall generator be used to sense position?

What will be an ideal response?


The Hall generator can be used in a manner similar to a limit switch. If the sensor is mounted beside a piece of moving equipment, and a permanent magnet is attached to the moving equipment, a voltage will be produced when the magnet moves near the sensor. The advantages of the Hall sensor are that it has no lever armor contacts to wear like a common limit switch, so it can operate through millions of operations of the machine.
