Correct Answer:
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.
Two factors determine the polarity of the voltage produced by the Hall generator: the direction of current flow and the ____ of the ____ field.
