Linear & rotary position sensors

Compact and functional angle of rotation transducers and position sensors - simple and cost-effective.

Rotary position sensors & rotary potentiometers

Our compact and easy-to-install rotary angle sensors (potentiometers) offer you a simple and cost-effective solution for detecting rotary movements. They are ready to use and include the sensor, a pre-magnetising solenoid and an advanced signal conditioning IC, all housed in a special multi-chip package.

Linear position sensors & potentiometers

Linear position sensors convert the displacement of an object into an output signal. Our linear position sensors (potentiometers) are characterised by reliable and accurate displacement measurements. Our sensors for position, displacement and distance offer a variety of technologies. Linear position sensors are used for industrial applications as well as in research and scientific laboratories. In addition to the standard linear position sensors, we also offer customised versions.

Product portfolio angle of rotation sensors

Althen offers a wide variety of angle of rotation sensors and potentiometric angle of rotation sensors, such as rotating magnetic Hall sensors, rotary encoders, inductive angle of rotation sensors, RVDT sensors and intrinsically safe, inductive angle of rotation sensors. Of course, we offer you many options for customising almost all sensor types, both electrically and mechanically - even for small series!

Position sensor product portfolio

We offer position measurement technology for a wide range of applications for measuring displacement, distance and position. Our position sensors are very robust, durable and have a particularly stable temperature behaviour. They are therefore ideal for displacement measurement in almost all areas of industry - especially in hydraulic or pneumatic applications.
