About the H117 Linear Inductive Position Sensor

The H117 is designed for industrial and scientific feedback applications and is ideal for OEMs seeking good sensor performance for arduous applications in hazardous areas.

The incorperated electronics system is CSA approved for use in potentially explosive gas/vapour and dust atmospheres.

The unit is very compact and space-efficient with a small 19mm diameter body.

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 5mm to 350mm and with full EMC protection built in.

The sensor is very robust, the body and push rod being made of stainless steel.

The sensor is easy to install with mounting options including M5 male stud and M5 rod eye bearing. The push rod can be supplied free or captive, with male M5 thread or M5 rod eye. 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.
