The P106 Inductive Linear Position Sensor is an in cylinder with external
electronics. It is a highly accurate, durable and affordable position
sensor designed for demanding hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder position
feedback applications where environmental resistance, cost and service
life are particuarly important. It is particuarly suited to OEM customers
who require good sensor performance where the internal length or diameter
is limited.
The repeatability, stability and overall performance are outstanding
over a large temperature range. The P106 LIPS is very compact and
space efficient, being responsive along almost its entite length.
Like all Positek sensors the P106 provides a linear output that is
proportional to the displacement. Each unit is supplied calibrated
to the exact travel required by the customer, the P106 is available
with any travel from 20mm to 600mm, for example, if your application
requires 10" (254 mm) measurement then Positek will manufacture
the sensor specifically for this length. The mechanical length and
calibration will be set up for 254 mm.
Manufactured from stainless steel with an inert flouropolymer sheathed
probe the P106 is rugged, ideal for cylinder based applications. The
probe and target are easy to install, as is the external electronics
module which has a range of mounting and electrical options. Sealing
to IP65 or IP67 dependant on cable or connector options and with integrated
full EMC protection.
