Miniature Position Sensors
April 1, 2019
NewTek Sensor Solutions offers a miniaturized series of AC-operated position sensors with a lightweight and compact 3/8" diameter size that provides reliable linear position feedback in rugged industrial applications with tight space and weight restrictions.
Resistant to harsh and high-pressure environments, the NewTek M-375 Series Miniature AC LVDTs are designed to provide high response dynamic measurement for machine operations such as robotics, automatic inspection equipment, plastic injection molding, hydraulic cylinder and valve positioning, downhole drilling and dimensional gauging. In addition to performing in the aerospace, oil & gas and manufacturing industries, these compact LVDTs serve as components within medical devices with tight space restrictions and high accuracy requirements.
With a corrosion-resistant, nickel-iron alloy housing and core, the environmentally-robust sensors operate in temperature extremes of -65 °F to +275 °F (-55 °C to +135 °C), with optionally extended ranges of -65 °F to 400 °F (55 °C to 204 °C). A vented design exposing the interior coil assembly equalizes pressure inside and outside the LVDT, enabling greater endurance to high pressure and temperature as well as shock and vibration.
The M-375 Series Miniature AC LVDTs are available in measurement ranges from ± 0.025" to ± 1" and provide linearity of < ± 0.25% over the full range with feature repeatability of <0.01% of full range. Designed to be cost-effective replacements to magnetostrictive sensors, these miniature position sensors are interchangeable with most manufacturer units and can serve as drop-in replacements. Sensors operate with differential input LVDT signal conditioning electronics provided by NewTek Sensors and as part of sensor control systems that monitor and provide alerts on equipment operating conditions.
"NewTek Sensor Solutions provides on-time delivery of units according to customer specifications," said a company spokesperson. The company accepts small- to large-sized orders and manufactures prototypes to spec. All products are USA-manufactured.
