P101

Positek

Part no.: P101

Key Features

• Body Diameter: 35mm

• Sensor Mounting: M5 Rod Eyes, Body Clamps or M5 ThreadsSpring loaded pushrod option available

• Any stroke from 0-5mm to 0-800mm (e.g. 305mm)

• Sealed to IP65/67 depending on connector/cable option

The P101 is a durable, affordable, high accuracy stand alone linear inductive position sensor designed for use in scientific and industrial applications.

Like all Positek sensors the P101 provides a linear output that is proportional to the displacement. The P101 is very compact and offers an excellent stroke to overall length ratio. Each unit is supplied calibrated to the exact travel required by the customer, 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 P101 is available with any travel from 0-5mm to 0-800mm.

The overall performance, repeat-ability and stability are outstanding over a wide temperature range. The sensor is very robust, manufactured from stainless steel the P101 has a long service life and strong environmental resistance and is particularly suitable for applications that require good sensor performance in harsh environments such as industrial machinery where cost is important.

The P101 is easy to install with either M5 rod eye or body clamps. The push rod can be supplied captive or free with either M5 thread, M5 rod eye or ball end. The rod can be spring loaded if required in either direction on sensors with a stroke length of up to 300mm. The P101 is available with a wide range of electrical inputs/outputs, sealing up to IP65/IP67 dependent on connector/cable options and fully integrated EMC protection.

Osico Oil-Mon: The Ultimate Oil Quality Sensor for Real-Time Monitoring

In the world of industrial machinery and high-tech equipment, maintaining optimal lubrication is not just a matter of efficiency—it’s a necessity for reliability and longevity. Particle contamination, water intrusion, and oxidation can transform lube oil from a machine’s lifeblood into its most insidious foe. While periodic lab analyses provide snapshots of oil health, imagine the possibilities if these critical parameters could be monitored continuously, in real time.

How To: Use an Open Collector Output

All new Gill level sensors come with a secondary output function which operates as a high or low level switch. So what is it and how do I use an Open Collector switch output?

Why Holistic Encoders are More Accurate

All absolute rotary encoders have a rotor which is attached to the rotating shaft and a stator which is attached to the housing holding the shaft. The interaction of these two components produces a measure of the shafts rotational angle. The most important parameters of absolute rotary sensors are resolution, accuracy and tolerance to misalignment of the rotational axes.

Intrinsically Safe Absolute Rotary Encoders

In the most hazardous environments, where an explosive atmosphere consisting of flammable gas or vapor is regularly present and a sensor fault cannot be risked, Intrinsically Safe (IS) sensors may be the best sensing option. Generally, these sensors are paired with a barrier which limits the amount of electrical and thermal energy that can enter the Hazardous Area to an amount that is so small that even in the situation of a sensor fault, there is not enough energy to cause an ignition.
