  • Publication number: 20070104402
    Abstract: A seal device with a sensor includes a fixed seal member fixed to a body-side raceway member and a rotated seal member fixed to a body-side raceway member. The rotated seal member comprises a pulsar provided with a support member and a magnetized body. The support member of the pulsar includes a small-diameter cylindrical portion fitted and fixed to a cylindrical portion of the rotated seal member, a large-diameter cylindrical portion having the magnetized body provided therein, and a connecting portion connecting both of the cylindrical portions. The support member of the pulsar is fitted and fixed to the axial inner portion of the cylindrical portion of the rotated seal member such that the connecting portion is set inward in the axial direction.
