LVDT sensors, also known as Linear Variable Differential Transformers (LVDTs), are highly accurate and reliable devices used for measuring linear displacement, position, and movement. An LVDT sensor delivers a stable and repeatable output signal due to its differential transformer design, making it ideal for demanding industrial and scientific applications.
These LVDT transducers are widely used for precision position feedback and measurement where long-term reliability and accuracy are critical. One of the key advantages of an LVDT is its ability to provide exact measurement immediately after power restoration, ensuring no loss of position data following a power interruption.
An LVDT position sensor operates using a frictionless moving magnetic core that travels axially within a stainless steel housing. Because the core does not make physical contact with the internal coil assembly, measurements are unaffected by rotation, vibration, or lateral movement. This non-contact design eliminates wear, reduces maintenance, and significantly improves service life.
LVDTs are recognised for their high repeatability once configured and calibrated. The absence of sliding or rotating friction allows the internal coil windings to be fully sealed, enabling LVDT sensors to perform reliably in harsh and hostile environments, including industrial automation, manufacturing, and test laboratories.
Key Advantages of LVDT Sensors
- High accuracy and excellent repeatability
- Stable output signal with no loss of position data after power outages
- Non-contact, frictionless operation for long service life
- Immune to rotational or lateral movement of the core
- Suitable for harsh industrial and scientific environments
- Excellent linearity with minimal hysteresis error
- Compatible with industry-standard signal conditioning and control systems
- Available with calibration certificates and technical documentation upon request
