LVIT Position Sensors
Linear Variable Inductance Transducer (LVIT) sensors are a simple yet effective choice for position sensing applications.
Linear Variable Inductance Transducers (LVITs) offer an excellent price-to-performance ratio compared to other linear position sensing technologies such as LVDTs, linear potentiometers, and magnetostrictive devices. The sensor's overall length only increases by a relatively small percentage beyond their stroke. As a result, LVITs may offer better stroke-to-length ratio than many other linear position sensor technologies.
Best for applications...
- That require a sensor with internal amplifier electronics
- That require a sensor with a short stroke-to-body length ratio
- Where the sensor will be exposed to fluids
- That require a sensor with an unlimited mechanical life
