Performance highlights G130 Long stroke in-cylinder linear position sensor
The G130 long stroke in-cylinder position sensor uses non-contact inductive technology to deliver precise, wear-free position measurement. Designed for integration into hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, it ensures high repeatability and excellent linearity across custom stroke lengths up to 1485 mm.
Usage conditions
Built with rugged stainless steel and a fluoropolymer-sheathed probe, the G130 operates reliably in demanding industrial environments. Certified intrinsically safe (Ex ia IIC T4 Ga), it is ideal for Class I, Zone 0 and Division 1 hazardous locations. Sealing options up to IP67 ensure protection in wet or dusty conditions.
Possible applications
- Hydraulic cylinder position feedback
- Pneumatic actuators
- Oil & gas exploration equipment
- Process automation in hazardous areas
- Energy sector (e.g., refineries, offshore rigs)
Advantages of choosing this product
The G130 offers exceptional design flexibility with customized travel lengths, infinite resolution, and high resistance to shock and vibration. With intrinsic safety certification and seamless integration with the Althen G005 amplifier, it's the ideal sensor for safety-critical and high-reliability environments.
