The P111 LIPS® (Linear Inductive Position Sensor) is a rugged,
heavy duty version of the P101 with a significantly stonger 1/2"
pushrod. The P111 is particuarly well suited to applications where
vibration is an issue or where the requirement is for a long travel
sensor, horizontaly mounted and supported by rod eyes.
It remains an affordable, durable, high accuracy linear sensor designed
for industrial and scientific feedback applications. The highly compact
and space efficient unit is responsive along almost all of its length.
Like all Positek sensors the P111 provides a linear output that is
proportional to the displacement. Each unit is supplied calibrated
to the exact travel required by the customer, the P111 is available
with any travel from 50mm 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.
The sensor is very robust, the body and push rod are made from stainless
steel for good environmental resistance and service life. This product
is well suited to OEM customers looking for good sensor performance
in arduous applications such as industrial machinery where cost is
important. Overall performance, repeatability and stability are outstanding
over a wide temperature range. The sensor is easy to install with
mounting options that include M8 rod eye bearings and body clamps.
The push rod is normally supplied captive but can be supplied free
if required. The push rod is supplied with either; M8 rod end, M8
female thread or with a dome end.
The P111 is sealed to either IP65/IP67 depending on which connector/cable
option. The sensor has fully integrated EMC protection.
