Featuring
high repeatability and linearity, the "PSEG" Series
LVDT's have been designed for precision measurement in critical gaging and
quality control applications.
A SPRING-EXTENDED
ARMATURE and a special high-precision linear bearing assembly yield virtually
friction-free probe action over a wide temperature range. With
suitable signal conditioning equipment,
these LVDT's can provide repeatability of 0.15 micron (6 microinches).
These
LVDT's are a logical selection when ambient temperature control is
impossible or inconvenient, since small size and AISI-446 stainless-steel
construction normally reduce thermal expansion errors to
insignificance. (Temperature errors attributable to the
transducer-instrument combination amount to less than one microinch per
°F. This is smaller than the errors that inevitably arise—even
in the most well designed fixture systems—from ordinary thermal
expansion and contraction. In general, dimensional measurement with
meaningful precision to 0.0001" or better demands a carefully
controlled temperature environment.)
All
models have rubber sealing bellows to prevent entry
of dust or liquid into the transducer housing.
The
bearing assembly has its own outer case, which adds to the high mechanical
strength of these transducers. All models have fully encapsulated,
magnetically shielded windings for use with ESI or other carrier amplifier
equipment. (Differential-inductance windings are also available, for
use with equipment with half-bridge input circuitry.)
They
can be mounted in any position, and are unaffected by being clamped into
the steel housings of most gaging fixtures. With a built-in
"anti-rotate" mechanism, each tungsten-carbide-tipped probe can withstand the
high side loads often encountered in multipoint gaging operations, without
loss of accuracy.
Securely
clamped LVDT cables are sheathed in the highest quality polyurethane, for
maximum strength and resistance to chemical/oil attack.
General Specifications are
given below.
