Product Summary
The 70085-1010-037 is a rugged, passive magnetic speed sensor from AI-TEK. Its compact design features a 10-32 thread and a 0.5-inch sensor length. Engineers use this sensor for precise rotational speed monitoring in tight spaces. It delivers a standard output voltage of 13 V (P-P). The guaranteed minimum output sits at 0.6 V (P-P). This ensures reliable signal detection even at low speeds. The sensor operates across a wide temperature range from -55 to +107°C. It comes with 18-inch color-coded lead wires for simple integration. This model provides a cost-effective solution for basic speed sensing applications.
Product Procurement & Buyer Guide
Why Choose the 70085-1010-037 for Your Application?
The 70085-1010-037 offers a unique combination of a small form factor and a high-temperature rating. Its 10-32 thread is significantly smaller than the 5/8-18 thread found on other models. This makes it ideal for installations with limited mounting space. The sensor’s net weight is just 1 oz. maximum. This lightweight design reduces mechanical stress on the mounting point. It also simplifies handling during installation and replacement.
Matching the Output Voltage to Your Control System
This sensor provides a standard output voltage of 13 V (P-P). However, the critical specification is the guaranteed minimum output. The 70085-1010-037 guarantees a 0.6 V (P-P) output at its trigger point. This low-speed performance is crucial for accurate zero-speed detection. You must verify that your PLC or counter module can read this low voltage. The DC resistance is 190 ohms maximum. This low resistance indicates a strong signal source with minimal internal losses.
Understanding Termination and Wiring
This specific model terminates with wires rather than a connector. This provides maximum flexibility for routing in tight conduits. The lead length is 18 inches (45.7 cm). This is sufficient for most direct-connection scenarios. The output polarity is clearly defined with the white lead being positive. This simple wiring scheme reduces the chance of installation errors. You can easily splice these wires into your existing harness.
Operating Environment and Temperature Rating
The 70085-1010-037 carries an agency approval of None. This means it is a standard industrial component without specific hazardous location certifications. Its operating temperature range is -55 to +107°C. This wide range allows for use in extreme hot or cold environments. The sensor length is just 0.5 inches. This compact profile allows it to fit into very shallow mounting holes. Always verify thread engagement depth for reliable operation.
Comparing to Other Models in the 70085 Series
Unlike the 70085-1010-018 model with a 3.625-inch thread, this sensor has a very short 0.5-inch thread. This makes the 70085-1010-037 the best choice for thin-walled applications. Models like the 70085-1010-026 produce a much higher output voltage of 150 V (P-P). The 70085-1010-037 is designed for lower-speed, lower-voltage environments. Its typical inductance is 10 mH, which is lower than the 360 mH of the -026 model. This lower inductance allows for a faster response to speed changes.
Making Your Procurement Decision
For procurement managers, the 70085-1010-037 represents a standard, reliable part. Its simple wire termination keeps per-unit costs low. The part number is clearly marked for easy reordering. Ensure you have the correct 10-32 tap for installation. This sensor is a direct replacement for many OEM applications. It provides a straightforward path to accurate speed measurement.
