Rugged linear position sensors target extreme industrial applications
The sensors can withstand the high vibration and severe shock environment found in steel, aluminum, and paper mills, as well as extremes of temperature (-40 to 85ºC) and humidity found in most outdoor applications where many other types of linear position sensors cannot survive.
The LV-45 series uses a proprietary inductive technology that allows it to replace traditional DC-LVDTs in most applications. Its simple coil design permits the sensor to be both shorter and more rugged than its DC-LVDT counterpart while operating over a wider temperature range. The LV-45 series is available with optional mounting flanges, rod eye ends, connector or cable terminations, and a captive connecting rod assembly that cannot break loose. The SenSet range adjustability feature allows the user to scale the sensor’s zero and full span output to the actual range of motion of the workpiece being measured after the sensor is installed. Designed with a 44.5mm outer diameter body with 5mm wall thickness, the sensors are available in sensing ranges from 100 to 450mm with various analog outputs.
