Abstract

A sensor for sensing an angular position of a rotatable element with respect to a non-rotatable element, the sensor comprising an encoder fast in rotation with the rotatable element, and a sensor body fixed respective to the non-rotatable element. The sensor body includes at least one sensing element adapted to sense angular position or rotation speed and direction of the encoder, a signal processor support member, and a sensing data output connector comprising at least one electrical wire connected to the support member. The sensor comprises a tubular body (accommodating the connector), including a first half-shell integral with the sensor body and a second half-shell assembled with the first half-shell around the connector. A tubular body internal surface comprises at least one radial ridge adapted to block a translation of the output connector along a longitudinal axis of the tubular body by penetrating into a sheath of the connector.
