Part no.: P137
• Body Diameter: 19mm
• Sensor Mounting:Â M5 Rod Eyes, Body Clamps or M5 ThreadsSpring loaded pushrod option available
• Measurement range 350-600mm, for shorter ranges see P117
• Sealed to IP67
The P137 is is very space efficient and compact with its 19mm body diameter. Affordable, durable, high-accuracy position sensor designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications. The repeatability, overall performance and stability are excellent over a large temperature range. The P137 is housed within a stainless steel body tube and has a 3/8″””” stainless steel push rod.
Various mounting options are available including M5 male stud and M5 rod eye bearing. The push rod can be supplied free or captive with M5 male thread or M5 rod eye. Like all Positek products the P117 provides a linear output proportional to the displacement. Each unit is supplied calibrated to the customers exact requirement, from 0-5mm to 0-350mm and with full EMC protection built in. For example, if your application requires 3/4″””” (19 mm) measurement then Positek will manufacture the sensor specifically for this length. The mechanical length and calibration will be set up for 19 mm.
The P117 is sealed to IP67 . The sensor has fully integrated EMC protection.

Potentiometers That Make Sense for Sensing
Despite their perceived simplicity, potentiometers can still be an appropriate option in today’s ever-complicated automation industry. Fundamentally a variable resistor, modern potentiometers also offer more traditional outputs such as voltage and current which are common to more expensive sensors.
If your environment is dirty, hot, wet, or corrosive your requirements may have some similarities with that of the construction industry.
Tiny Tech, Big Impact: Rotary Encoders Are a Critical Link the Agrobot Revolution
A recent GlobalData report highlights the impressive growth of the robotics industry in agriculture (reaching $218 billion by 2030), a key component behind this revolution often goes unnoticed: the rotary encoder. These unsung heroes convert rotational motion into precise electrical signals, playing a vital role in ensuring the smooth, accurate movements of agricultural robots.
