Performance highlights G101 Linear inductive position sensor

The G101 is a highly reliable, intrinsically safe linear position sensor designed for use in hazardous gas or vapour environments. With non-contacting inductive technology, it offers infinite resolution and stable linear output. It supports strokes from 5 mm up to 800 mm, with outstanding linearity (≤ ±0.25% FSO up to 450 mm and ≤ ±0.5% beyond).

Usage conditions

Designed to operate between -40°C and +80°C, the G101 is certified for Class I, Zone 0 and Division 1 (Groups A-D), making it ideal for industrial, scientific, and OEM use. It features a rugged stainless steel body and rod, EMC protection, and is sealed to IP65 or IP67, depending on the connector or cable configuration.

Possible applications

Industrial automation in ATEX/IECEx areas
Valve and actuator position feedback
Oil and gas installations
Chemical plant monitoring
Hazardous test environments

Advantages of choosing this sensor

The G101 delivers robust performance in explosive environments. Its compact, durable design allows easy installation in space-limited or harsh areas. The sensor is individually calibrated to the required stroke length and comes with a wide range of mechanical and electrical configurations, including pre-wired and connector versions.

Other important features

Spring-loaded push rod options (extend/retract)
Captive or non-captive push rod
Multiple output types (0.5–4.5V ratiometric)
Galvanic isolation amplifier recommended
CSA certified EX08 electronics
