Description
The Positek M114 waterproof linear position sensor 10bar is an ATEX and IECEx mining approved affordable, durable, high-accuracy position sensor. Derived from the M101 stand alone linear sensor, the M114 was designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications where the equipment requires IP68 sealing, it shares many of the desirable features such as compact size.
The M114 waterproof sensor, like all Positek® sensors, provides a linear output proportional to displacement. Each unit is supplied with the output calibrated to the travel required by the customer, from 0-5mm to 0-800mm and with full EMC protection built in. The sensor is very robust, the body and push rod being made of stainless steel for long service life and environmental resistance. The M114 has been designed for applications where the sensor may be completely submerged in water up to a pressure of 10Bar, but good sensor performance and cost are still important.
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 sensor can be installed with a cable length up to 1km between the sensor and the amplifier.
