About the MP series LVDT
The MP Series LVDTs provide classic precision performance in harsh industrial environments. The rugged, extruded anodized aluminum housing contains a 100% epoxy encapsulated LVDT, affording superior environmental, mechanical and EMI/RFI protection. The convenient heavy-duty terminal strip replaces multiple lead wires thereby simplifying electrical connection, while the mounting flanges ease mechanical installation. An integral Teflon® bore liner provides a smooth, low-friction bearing surface for the core and reduces diametrical clearance.
Available in a variety of stroke ranges from ±0.5 to ±10 inches, the MP Series is the ideal choice for industrial mill type applications, power turbines, or wherever aggressive environmental conditions are present. The MP Series is also available with a small diameter/low-mass core, for applications where excessive core weight could influence the motion. The lightweight core can also reduce mechanical stresses and help preserve the structural integrity of the core actuation assembly during high speed displacement or under high vibration. The MP Series is compatible with the full line of Althen LVDT signal conditioners, readouts and controllers.
Applications for MP Series
- Paper mills
- Power turbine valve position
- Rolling mills
- Metal forming presses
- Steel mill “ton-dish” slide valve feedback
- Progressive rotary press Z-axis feedback
