Positek Provides More Precise Information On Function And Use Of Lvdts

UNITED KINGDOM, 2018 – As Positek confirms, linear, tilt, and rotary position sensors come in various styles and technologies, as every application has different requirements when it comes to attributes, and certain technologies are more suited to certain circumstances and environments compared to others.

Positek certainly knows what it is talking about, as it has been in operation for more than 25 years, producing superior quality and highly advanced transducers and sensors for its many clients across the United Kingdom and around the world. But today, Positek further enhances its level of support to its customers by providing more detailed, precise information on the functions and uses of LVDTs, expressly created for the benefit of customers.

Positek provides clients with ready answers regarding some of their most important questions about LVDTs. According to the company, there are different kinds of position sensors, and one of these is the LVDT position sensor.

Positek states, “LVDTs, also known as linear variable differential transformers, are electric transformers which convert rectilinear or linear movement into an electrical signal. At a basic level, linear variable displacement transformers are composed of a movable core housed inside a stainless steel, or similarly robust, assembly, surrounded by coils which measure its position. The LVDT is connected to a known fixed point at one end and the object to be measured at the other. As the measured object moves, the core within the LVDT is shifted, allowing it to send an electric signal (based on a voltage change) based on the position of the object.”

As if this information weren’t enough, Positek also provides highly useful information on the sensor output or operation of LVDTs and why they are truly beneficial. Positek confirms, for example, that one of the main advantages of the inductive sensor/LVDT is that if power is turned off, once it is restarted again, the unit will provide the same measurement, which means that there is no information on position which is lost. In addition, if the LVDT is accurately and correctly configured, it can offer the same information level time and time again.
