Frequently Asked Questions About DC Operated Miniature LVDTs?
Learn about compact self-contained linear position sensors with integrated signal conditioning, DC voltage output, and applications in medical equipment and automation systems.
A DC operated miniature LVDT is a compact, self-contained linear position sensor that provides a DC voltage output proportional to linear displacement—ideal for applications with limited space and no need for external signal conditioning.
It integrates both the LVDT sensing element and signal conditioning electronics in one unit. The sensor uses internal electronics to convert the position of a moving magnetic core into a stable DC output voltage.
Compact and integrated design, Easy installation (no external electronics needed), Clean DC voltage or current output, High linearity and resolution, Long-term reliability with no contact wear.
Most models operate on a single supply voltage, typically 5V, ±12V, or ±15V DC, depending on the model.
They typically offer a unipolar or bipolar DC voltage output (e.g., 0–5 V, ±5 V, or ±10 V) or, in some models, a 4–20 mA current loop for long-distance signal transmission.
They're commonly used in: Medical equipment, Aerospace test systems, Miniature actuators, Servo mechanisms, Laboratory automation.
No. All required electronics are built into the sensor, making them plug-and-play for most applications.
Yes. Many models are sealed and built with rugged materials to withstand vibration, moisture, and extreme temperatures.
Typical stroke ranges span from ±0.5 mm up to ±25 mm for miniature models. Check specific datasheets for exact range options.
Factory calibration is usually provided. However, minor adjustments can be made during system integration to match your application's requirements.
