About the HR-Z Series Mild radiation resistance LVDT

The HR-Z Series LVDTs are a variant of the popular HR Series. The HR-Z Series provide the optimum performance required for a majority of mild radiation applications. The large 1/16 inch [1.6mm] bore-to-core radial clearance provides for ample installation misalignments and therefore reduces the application costs. Featuring a high output voltage and a broad operating frequency range, these versatile and highly reliable LVDTs deliver worry-free and precise position measurements at temperatures up to 300°F [150°C].

Available in a variety of stroke ranges from ±0.05 to ±10 inches, the HR-Z Series can be configured with a metric threaded core as an option. With mild radiation resistance (1012 NVT total integrated flux; 107 rads Gamma), the HR-Z Series is compatible with the full line of Measurement Specialties LVDT signal conditioners.

Other features HR-Z Series

  • Large 1/16” core-to-bore clearance
  • Calibration certificate supplied with each unit
  • High Reliability
  • Imperial or metric threaded core

Applications for HR-Z Series

  • Mild radiations areas
  • High temperature applications
  • Process control
  • Factory automation
  • Applications with large misalignments
