Description
The Positek X120 submersible in-cylinder sensor 350bar is an ATEX and IECEx approved version of the S120 cylinder sensor. The X120 is sealed for a maximum of 350bar combined hydraulic and water pressure. The unit is compact, space-efficient and responsive along almost its entire length.
Like all Positek® sensors, the X120 provides a linear output proportional to displacement. Each sensor is supplied with the output calibrated to the travel required by the customer, our standard range covers any measurement range from 0-5mm to 0-800mm. As with all of our packaged sensors full EMC protection is built in.
The sensor is very robust, the body and target tube are made of 316 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 M18 or 3/4″ UNF mounting thread options. The target tube can be supplied plain or with a variety of flanges.
This sensor is waterproof for submersion to 3500 meters (350bar combined water and hydraulic pressure).
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 in-cylinder sensor can be installed with a cable length up to 1km between the sensor and the amplifier.
Approval only applies to the specified ambient temperature range and atmospheric conditions in the range 0.80 to 1.10 Bar, oxygen <=21%.
