LVDT Position Sensors
Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) sensors are a simple yet effective choice for position sensing applications.
The letters LVDT are an acronym for Linear Variable Differential Transformer, a common type of electromechanical transducer that can convert the rectilinear motion of an object to which it is coupled mechanically into a corresponding electrical signal. LVDT linear position sensors are readily available that can measure movements as small as a few millionths of an inch up to several inches, but are also capable of measuring positions up to ±20 inches (±0.5 m).
Best for applications...
- That require a sensor with excellent repeatability
- That require a sensor resistant to shock and vibration
- That require a sensor with an unlimited mechanical life
