LVIT - Position Sensors for Civil Engineering Applications

ASG linear sensors are all designed for heavily industrialized and harsh environments. Bridge expansion, rail track monitoring for buckling, building/structural integrity, waste water treatment, and road level are all applications successfully satisfied with MR, ME and LV sensors. With ranges up to 1m, built-in electronics that can operate from -40 to 115C, shock/vibration resistance and optional mounting hardware such as rod-eye ends, ASG offers a complete solution for outdoor applications. Each sensor has the SenSet™ calibration feature allowing the sensor, after installation, to be calibrated to the exact cylinder’s stroke.

LVDT Linear Position Sensors LA-27-A Series

Alliance Sensors Group LA-27-A series LVDT linear position sensors are designed to handle extreme industrial environments. This robust linear sensor has a thick wall aluminum housing (also available in stainless steel), a core enclosed inside of the core extension rod assembly that cannot break loose, while offering a sturdy male thread for easy mechanical connection, and a pair of double contact shaft seals to keep fluids and solid contaminants out of its bore. The sensor’s electrical termination includes the choice of an axial connector or a cord grip with a cable.

Alliance Sensors Group LV-45 series LVIT (Linear Variable Inductance Transducer) position sensors are specifically targeted for measuring applications requiring rugged devices, whether measuring position of steam turbine valves, mounted in a paper mill head box or calender roll stand, or operating outdoors fastened to a bridge or structure. LV-45 sensors use a contactless inductive technology that allows them to replace other technology sensors like potentiometers and DC LVDTs in most applications. With a simple coil design, a captive connecting rod, and a thick-walled housing, the sensors are both shorter and more robust than their DC-LVDT counterparts while ...

The LA-21-A series AC LVDTs offers the robust designs for which Alliance Sensors Group is known in typical industrial packages, with full ranges from 3 inches (75 mm) to 15 inches (375 mm). They are supplied in a zinc-plated-steel 0.805 inch (20.5 mm) diameter housing with 4-inch (100 mm) stripped-and-tinned axial leads. Each LVDT’s core is enclosed in a 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) diameter extension rod from which it cannot break loose and has a 5/16-24 UNF or M8 X 1.25 male thread for easy attachment. LA-21-A AC-LVDTs are ideal for stamping or drawing press die opening, injection molding machine platen position, process valve controls, and roller gap feedback in ...
