Rotation sensors are used in a variety of environments and applications to ensure the components within the device are working correctly. They are available in different technologies and each one has their own way of working with different advantages.   Types of Rotation Sensor Positek...

At Positek, we supply a number of rotary and linear sensors suited for applications that are exposed to combustible dust and other dust hazards. Our sensors, which offer explosive dust protection, operate on the basis of intrinsic safety. Using a galvanically isolated three-port amplifier, our...

There are different types of technology that can be classed as “inductive”. Our inductive sensors use our technology which is similar to that of an LVDT or an RVDT. Our PIPS sensors have added benefits such as improved stroke to length ratio and higher reliability.  Using our...

Consideration 1: Type of Displacement  The most important factor to consider is the type of movement that requires measuring. This can be either Rotary or Linear. The movement will determine which type of sensor is required. Linear sensors measure displacement along a single axis, this...

In many instances, linear displacement measuring, and monitoring is required. For this measurement, a linear position sensor is required. At Positek we have a wide range of linear position sensors which can be used in various industries and environments Linear Displacement Sensors Here at...

There are many advantages to using non-contact displacement sensors over contacting technology. They are used for a variety of applications in different industries. What is a Non-Contact Displacement Sensor? A non-contact displacement sensor is a type of sensor used for measuring the change...
