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.

Accuracy, Resolution and Repeatability
There are several key terms that are critical to specifying the optimal position sensor for a given application. This application note defines these key terms and how they relate to the sensor’s role in the overall system performance. It is important to consider that precision is very much a system issue and can be dominated by mechanical errors such as eccentricity. This paper discusses the most significant mechanical error for rotary applications (eccentricity) and presents eccentricity tolerant position sensor solutions.
What is a multiturn rotary encoder?
A multiturn rotary encoder is a sensor that measures the angle of rotation of a shaft, as well as the number of complete revolutions that the shaft has made. This is in contrast to a single-turn encoder, which only measures the angle of rotation, 0 – 360°. Multiturn encoders are used in a variety of applications where it is important to track the position of a moving object, such as in machine tools, robotics, and automation systems.
Expanded VLP Encoder Series Offers Control Engineers New Sensing Options
Everight Position is pleased to announce the addition of four new sizes of Netzer’s two-plate VLP rotary encoder amongst other improvements. Based on the success of the VLP-60 and VLP-100, the new options include the VLP-80, VLP-140, VLP-170 and VLP-247.
