LVDT installations require a connecting rod between the LVDT core and the object whose motion is being measured. These connecting rods are fabricated from non-magnetic stainless steel to prevent distortion of the LVDT’s magnetic field. Manufactured from AISI 300 Series stainless steel, core connecting rods are threaded end to end. (Consult factory for available lengths and sizes.)
The PSD 4-15 DC LVDT power supply is designed to work with all of Schaevitz® DC powered LVDTs. The module will operate on either a 115 VAC or 230 VAC input at 47 to 63 Hz. The PSD 4-15 provides the necessary 15 VDC excitation to operate as many as four DC-EC or HCD Series LVDTs, as well as GCD Series gage heads or DC powered Schaevitz® RVDTs (see rotary section) or pressure transducers (see pressure section) that require a 15 VDC input. The rugged, compact design can be chassis mounted and features a DIN standard rail mount for secure installation in most industrial environments. In addition, the PSD 4-15 is UL, VDE and cUL approved and CE certified.
The economical E series of LVDTs satisfies numerous applications where LVDT performance and reliability are desired, but where budgets are limited. Linearity is 0.5% of full-range for all units except long-stroke models. The E series is particularly suitable for moderate operating temperatures. Its rugged construction will resist the shocks and vibrations encountered in most industrial applications. The E series is housed in magnetic stainless steel for protection against electromagnetic and electrostatic interference.
HCA LVDT series are tungsten-inert gas (TIG) welded to form a hermetic seal that is impervious to dirt, water, steam and corrosive liquids and vapors. They feature a glass-sealed, MS-type connector, but do not permit through-bore operation. (A pin connector version – HPA series – allows the core and core rod to pass through the unit.) All exposed surfaces are stainless steel, including the boreliner and connector shell. Units can withstand external pressure up to 1,000 psi (70 bars). Double magnetic shielding resists external magnetic influences.
The high reliability HR Series of LVDT products are suitable for most general applications. The HR Series features a large core-to-bore clearance, high output voltage over a broad range of excitation frequencies, and a magnetic stainless steel case for electromagnetic and electrostatic shielding.
Frequently, LVDT installations require a convenient method to mount the units. Ready-made mounting blocks are available for all LVDT Series (except XS-B). Constructed of reinforced phenolic and other nonconductive materials with a low-temperature coefficient of expansion, mounting blocks are a convenient, inexpensive and fast solution for LVDT installation.
