About the M118 Linear Inductive Position Sensor
The M118 is designed for a wide range of industrial applications and is ideal for OEMs seeking good sensor performance in situations where a small diameter, short-bodied sensor is required for operation in hazardous areas.
The incorperated electronics system is ATEX / IECEx approved for use in potentially explosive gas/vapour, dust atmospheres and mining environments.
Overall performance, repeatability and stability are outstanding over a wide temperature range. It provides a linear output proportional to displacement. Each unit is supplied with the output calibrated to the travel required by the customer, from 2mm to 50mm and with full EMC protection built in.
The sensor has a compact 19 mm diameter stainless steel body, is easy to install and set up. The stainless steel mounting flange has two 3.2mm by 30 degree wide slots on a 25mm pitch. The stainless steel plunger can be supplied free or captive, with female M4 thread, or springloaded with a ball end. Environmental sealing is to IP67.
As a leading supplier of linear, rotary, tilt and intrinsically safe position sensors, Althen has the expertise to supply a sensor to suit a wide variety of applications.
