LVDTs are drop-in alternatives
The PR 750 Series of general purpose LVDT position sensors are reliable and cost effective solutions for many position measurement applications.
Conditioner makes best use of space and power
The LVC-2402 is novel single-channel LVDT signal conditioner ideal for use in automation applications with PLCs and mini-PLCs.
The PRH 812 Series is ideal for accurate linear position measurement in a variety of OEM applications including materials testing, valve position sensing, hydraulic cylinder positioning, robotics as well as automated assembly.
Available in full scale measuring ranges of +1.25 to +250mm, the PRH 812 Series of AC-LVDTs offer 1.6mm core-to-bore radial clearance with the standard core supplied.
Operating from a nominal 3.0V RMS input voltage, units display low hysteresis with error better than 0.01% of FSO, excellent repeatability and nonlinearity of better than +0.25% of FRO.
Built for environmental robustness, the PRH 812 Series operate in temperature ranges from -55 to +150C.
Macro Sensors offers a variety of options for the PRH 812 Series that enable a user or OEM to customise units or match them to an existing application.
Options include: Teflon bore liners, metric threaded cores, smaller diameter cores that offer greater core-to-bore clearance or lower core mass and mild nuclear radiation resistance.
Macro Sensors can also custom design and produce special PRH 812 LVDTs with different lead wire colours, exit points, configurations, connectors and higher temperature operation.
Units operate with conventional LVDT signal conditioners available through Macro Sensors.
