Linear inductive position sensors

Designed for precise, non-contact measurement of linear displacements, linear inductive position sensors are essential in various applications. These advanced devices operate on the principle of inductive sensing, detecting an object's position by measuring changes in inductance as it gets closer. Engineered for demanding environments, our range of highly reliable sensors features robust construction, exceptional accuracy, and high sensitivity, making them ideal for use in automation, robotics, and industrial machinery.

Benefits of linear inductive position sensors

One of the key benefits of these sensors is their effectiveness in environments where traditional contact sensors may fail due to friction and mechanical stress. The non-contact design not only extends the operational lifespan but also ensures consistent performance under harsh conditions, including extreme temperatures and high humidity. With various configurations and output types available, these sensors can be easily integrated into existing systems, enhancing operational efficiency and productivity. Whether for heavy-duty machinery or precision applications, the right linear inductive position sensor is available to meet your specific requirements.

  • Non-contact design
    This feature reduces wear and tear, extending operational lifespans and ensuring reliability in harsh environments.
  • High precision
    These sensors provide accurate linear displacement measurements, making them ideal for automation, robotics, and industrial applications.
  • Durable performance
    Built to withstand extreme temperatures, humidity, and contaminants, they maintain reliable operation in demanding conditions.

Considerations for selecting linear inductive position sensors

When choosing linear inductive position sensors for your application, several important factors should be taken into account to ensure optimal performance and compatibility:

  • Measurement range: Identify the required sensing range for your application. Choose a sensor that accurately measures the full extent of linear displacement to ensure precision.
  • Sensitivity and resolution: Evaluate the sensors sensitivity and resolution. Higher values enable precise detection of small movements, which is crucial for detailed measurements.
  • Environmental conditions: Consider the operating environment. Factors like extreme temperatures, humidity, vibration, and exposure to contaminants can impact performance. Select a sensor designed to endure these conditions.
  • Output type: Ensure the sensors output signals such as analog voltage, current, or digital are compatible with your existing systems for effective integration and data collection.
  • Mounting and size: Check the physical dimensions and mounting requirements to ensure the sensor fits within your installation space and can be easily mounted.
  • Response time: For applications needing real-time feedback, choose sensors with faster response times to ensure timely data acquisition.

Carefully considering these factors will guide you in selecting the perfect linear inductive position sensor for your needs, guaranteeing reliable performance and accurate measurements in your application.
