Novotechnik is introducing the TEX series of position sensors with stroke lengths up to 300 mm. The new sensor combines compact housing size of 18 mm diameter with pressure equalization.

The TEX series is rated to protection class IP66, and contains Novotechnik's patented differential pressure compensation technology. This advanced system equalizes pressure, which builds up from rod movement on linear sensors, without allowing contaminants.

The TEX series has outstanding linearity ±0.05% with resolution better than 0.01 mm and is equipped with pivot heads to provide a large angle of free movement to eliminate side-load errors.

TEX series is complete with stroke lengths and electrical range up to 300 mm and an operating life of up to 20 million movements. The TEX series is also designed to withstand adverse environment conditions such as humidity, oil, and dust.

The TEX series offers multiple mounting options, fixing clamps for center bushing or bolt-through flange plates.
