  • Frequency response: 500Hz or 200Hz

About the HCD series Hermetically Sealed

The HCD Series LVDTs are impervious to dirt, water, steam spray and most corrosives. Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding provides hermetic sealing that is free from oxidation-producing faults that may cause leakage. They have been qualified at pressures up to 1000 psi (70 bars) and are suitable for numerous high-pressure applications. They are terminated with a glass-sealed, MS-type terminal connector. The connector prohibits the core from passing completely through the coil assembly. HCD units have double magnetic shielding that makes them insensitive to external magnetic influences.

Applications for HCD

  • Harsh Industrial Environments
  • Ideal for Pressure Installations up to 1,000 psi
  • Submersible with Appropriate
  • Connector

Options

  • Metric Thread Core
  • Captive Core Option for Convenient Installation
  • Guided Core
  • Small Diameter, Low Mass Core
