Linear position sensors

7 September 2016 Test & Measurement

Alliance Sensors has added a line of LR-19 series inductive linear position sensors using LVIT technology; contactless devices designed for factory automation and a variety of industrial or commercial applications such as motor sport vehicles, automotive testing, solar cell positioners, wind turbine prop pitch and brake position, and packaging equipment.

With their compact design, performance and excellent stroke-to-length ratio, LR-19 sensors are ideal for both industrial testing laboratories and OEM applications. They come in six ranges from 25 to 200 mm, in a 19 mm diameter, ano-dised aluminium housing sealed to IP-67. The radial cable exit version comes with swivel rod eye ends, while axial termination versions come with either M-12 connector or cable.

Operating from a variety of DC voltages, the LR-19 series offers a choice of four analog outputs and all include a proprietary SenSet field recalibration feature. The series also includes two larger body versions, the LR-27 and LRL-27, for those applications needing a heavier duty unit, and a spring loaded version called the LRS-18.
