Proper mounting is essential for getting accurate, repeatable measurements from an LVDT. In this video, we explain several common LVDT mounting methods and best practices to ensure reliable sensor performance and long service life. Learn how precision mounting blocks, clamps, and threaded spring-loaded LVDTs can be used to securely install your sensor while maintaining proper alignment between the core and the sensor body. We also discuss why split-collar mounting blocks are preferred, why set screws should be avoided, and how proper axial alignment helps prevent friction, wear, and inaccurate readings. Whether you’re integrating an LVDT into new equipment or troubleshooting an existing installation, understanding these mounting techniques will help ensure consistent measurement performance.
