Linear Position and LVDT Sensors

Linear Position and Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) sensors are used to convert a linear motion of an object to a corresponding electrical output. The motion is measured using a rod connected to the object using a rod eye or sprung rod. Sensors have a range of options to cover various linear distances, outputs, mounting options and ATEX approvals.

Rotary Position Sensors

Rotary position sensors. Rugged, durable inductive rotary position sensors and tilt sensors for 5 to 160 degrees rotation. Voltage or current output versions available.

Optical and proximity type RPM Sensors

Optical speed sensors with analogue and pulse output, hall effect gear tooth sensors with pulse output

Eddy Current/Proximity Probes

Eddy Current/Proximity probes are used for non contact displacement and vibration measurement. The core applications for these sensors is monitoring shaft expansion, relative vibration and speed on a range of rotating machinery from turbines to pumps and compressors. A proximity probe system is made up of an inductive sensor embedded in a stainless steel body with a fixed & tuned length of coaxial cable connected to a separate driver unit. The driver provides the excitation to the probe and generates a linearised output proportional to the gap between the target material and probe tip. Displacement ranges available from 0-2.5 to 0-25mm

Tilt Sensors

Solid state capacitance type and very high accuracy servo accelerometers
