DC-Operated, Long-Stroke
Spring-Extended Armature

 

"LE5" LVDT Series (DC)

These are the standard DC-EXCITED LONG-STROKE LVDT models with SPRING-EXTENDED ARMATURE.  Operating from a simple unregulated power supply of +20 to +40 VDC (or dual ±10 to ±20 VDC), each LVDT generates two standard ±5 VDC antiphase output signals. These two outputs can be used individually, or they can be combined to yield a high-level ±10 VDC "differential output signal."  For low-output (±2 V) versions, see the DC "LE2" LVDT Series (2-wire 4-20 mA output is also available as an option—contact the factory for details).

Each model includes high-quality electronics for energization and signal conditioning.  Encapsulated, integrated electronics are suitable for operation in harsh industrial environments.  All models are fitted with 2 meters (6.6 ft.) of shielded cable.  For hermetically sealed versions, see the DC "LEM" LVDT Series

General Specifications are given below.
