Part no.: X005
• Provides isolation between the amplifier power supply, the hazardous area and the X005 output signal
• Input power supply range of 12 to 30 volts DC
• Factory configured to either 0.5 to 9.5V or 4-20mA
• Bandwidth of 4.7kHz, making it ideal for servo control loops.
The X005 Galvanic Isolation Amplifier has been designed specifically for use with Positek Intrinsically Safe position sensors and is certified intrinsically safe [Ex ia Ma] I and [Ex ia Ga Da] IIC. The Amplifier sacles the output in the safe area and ensures the corresponding output is correct over a wide range of input voltages. It also supports a 5-wire installation option which can negate the effect of losses over long distances, thus maintaining the output signal accuracy. The X005 is factory configured to either 0.5 to 9.5V or 4-20mA and has a bandwidth of 4.7kHz.

In the world of rotary encoders, modern non-contact sensing technologies and high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) specifications are standard. However, in critical applications, redundant sensors are still a necessity. When selecting a solution, several criteria need to be considered, and fortunately, various options are available to simplify the task. Understanding Redundancy in Encoders The […]
Position Sensors for Hazardous Locations
When choosing components for a hazardous environment it is important to have a trusted partner. For over a decade engineers have relied on Everight Position for rotary, linear and tilt sensors for these challenging applications.
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.
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.
