Flux lines in our Linear Position Sensors

 

 

 

 

Position 1

 

 

One can easily see that the magnetic flux path changes according to the magnet’s position and that the induction in the measurement gap is modified.

The relationship between the induction measured by the probe and the linear position is linear.
