2,5,10,20 and 30 mm displacement transducer measuring ranges
Accuracy better than 0.1 µm
Repeatability precision better than 0.05 µm
Resolution better than 0.01 µm
Range of contact sensor tips available
Pneumatic actuation using internal piston – gaiter independent.
Standard contact sensor tip force of 0.7N (other options available)
IP50 sealing
Displacement sensor with excellent sideload capability
Superior performance compared to traditional Linear
Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) displacement sensors
High resistance to external magnetic fields which can interfere with measurements from typical LVDTs
Jet ‘J Type' probes are similar to pneumatic except that actuation is by an inbuilt piston. High tip forces are available but as air is vented through a port close to the front of the probe, they have a lower IP rating. These probes will continue to operate even if the gaiter becomes punctured
