Abstract
An apparatus for containing electrical components for sensing or measuring magnetic fields includes a tubular member made of a ferrous material such as austenitic stainless steel or aluminum. The tubular member is capable of receiving electric components therein for measuring magnetic fields. A cap made of a non-ferrous metal is affixed to one end of the tubular member and the electrical components are placed within the tubular member in close proximity with the inner surface of the cap. The tubular member is positioned in proximity to a rotor shaft or the like to enable the electrical components therein to measure magnetic fields to sense the rate and/or direction of rotation.
