Abstract

The device has a housing, a drive in the housing and at least one arrangement for position detection. A piston rod mounted in the housing is correspondingly connected to the drive to exert a force effect. The arrangement for position detection contains at least one fixed Hall sensor and at least one movable magnet corresponding to the Hall sensor, whereby the magnet produces a magnetic field for generating a magnetic flux. An independent claim is also included for the following: (a) a kit system for producing final control elements for driving final control devices.
