P505 Rotary Position Sensor

The Positek P505 slim-line rotary sensor with its 19mm diameter body is a miniature, high accuracy rotary position sensor designed for industrial, automotive and scientific feedback applications. Like all Positek® sensors, the P505 is supplied with the output calibrated to the angle specified by the customer, between 15 and 160 degrees.The electronics are all fully integrated, no external signal conditioning is required. The sensor provides a linear output proportional with angle of rotation. There is a small machined registration mark to identify the calibrated mid point.

The P505 is well suited to OEMs where good sensor performance and compact housing is important. It also requires a smaller footprint compared to the P500 rotary position sensor.

Overall performance, repeatability and stability are outstanding over a wide temperature range. The P505 has a anodised aluminium flange, stainless steel body and shaft for a long service life and excellent environmental resistance. The sensor is easy to install with flange or servo mounting options, it also offers a range of electrical options. Sealing is IP67 and full EMC protection built in.

Positek offers a range of options for its standard sensors. Each sensor is manufactured to suit each customer's preferences. If your requirement is outside the options given below, Positek can modify/ redesign a sensor to suit your specific requirement. Standard options are available as below:

 

Measurement Range

Factory set to any length from ±7.5° to ±80° in increments of 1°. For example, if your application requires 90° measurement, then Positek will manufacture the sensor specifically for this angular range. The sensor will measure 90° however will still rotate through 360°.
