Abstract
A bistable linear electromagnet comprising a first housing () and a second housing () in alignment, a movable armature () comprising a rod () and a shuttle () that is slidably mounted, and a first coil () positioned in the first housing and a second coil () positioned in the second housing. A cavity () is made in a measurement wall () of one of the housings, and the electromagnet comprises a magnetic field sensor () positioned in the cavity and designed to measure a magnetic flux existing in a magnetic path formed by the walls of said housing and by the shuttle, in order to detect whether the shuttle has moved towards or away from the abutment wall of said first or second housing.
