Oil-compatible LVDT displacement sensors for heavy-duty applications
For use in heavy machinery in oily environments, Inelta Sensorsysteme from Taufkirchen near Munich offers LVDT displacement sensors with oil separators.
These inductive displacement sensors, which are available with or without an integrated return spring, are oil-compatible in accordance with SAE90 MIL 2105B and have an oil tightness of <0.2 bar. The measuring path of the sensor, which are manufactured in a robust stainless steel housing, can be adapted to the specific application.
The units achieve protection class IP68 and can be used in extended temperature ranges from -40°C to +80°C, depending on the version. The LVDT displacement sensors are characterized by their excellent repeatability. A 4..20mA output signal is used to output the measured values. The supply voltage is 24VDC. On request, Inelta also manufactures these LVDT sensors in customized versions with or without integrated amplifier, with different standard voltages or standard currents.
As an alternative to the standard round housings, the sensor specialist also produces individual housing designs, for example in hexagonal format with the customer's preferred wrench widths. Such housings, which are screwed in or out via the head-side external thread and securely fixed in place with just a few turns of the wrench, are ideal for quickly replacing sensors in construction machinery, crane systems or other heavy-duty applications.
