These transducers are for displacement / position measurement. They make an accurate position
measurement of the movement of the armature (the sliding part) relative to the body of the displacement
transducer.
The LIN differential-inductance LVDTs are inductive (similar to an LVDT sensor) and because there is no
contact across the sensor element it is very robust.
This sensor is appropriate for high temperature, high pressure and high nuclear radiation position
measurement applications. Many applications in turbines, in nuclear power stations and in research labs are
appropriate for this sensor.
On our unguided LVDTs the armature assembly is a separate component, to make a measurement the user
must guide the armature inside the body without touching the sides. Unguided position measurement
transducers are appropriate where external guidance is available and give truly non-contact operation
