X101 Stand Alone Linear Position Sensor

X101 Stand Alone Linear Position Sensor

The Intrinsically Safe X101 is ATEX and IECEx approved for use in potentially explosive gas/vapour atmospheres. It is designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications and is ideal for OEMs seeking good sensor performance for arduous applications in hazardous areas.

  • Highly compact and space-efficient, being responsive along almost its entire length
  • Linear output proportional to displacement
  • Each unit is supplied with the output calibrated to the travel required from 0-5mm to 0-800mm and with full EMC protection built in
  • The sensor is very robust, the body and push rod being made of stainless steel for long service life and environmental resistance
  • Overall performance, repeatability and stability are outstanding over a wide temperature range
  • The sensor is easy to install with mounting options including M5 rod eye bearings and body clamps
  • The push rod can be supplied free or captive, with female M5 thread, an M5 rod eye, or dome end
  • Captive push rods can be sprung loaded, in either direction, on sensors up to 300mm of travel
  • Environmental sealing is to IP65 or IP67, depending on selected cable or connector options.

Positek intrinsically safe sensors are designed to be used with a galvanically isolated amplifier .  Approved galvanic isolation amplifiers (X005) are available from Positek; there is a choice of 0.5-9.5V or 4-20mA transmission outputs.

The sensor can be installed with a cable length up to 1km between the sensor and the amplifier.
