Linear position gauging solution
27 June 2012

Macro Sensors offers a complete ‘out-of-the-box’ solution for linear position gauging with its new EAZY-GAGE Bundle. Combining spring-loaded, AC-operated LVDT position sensors with an EAZY-CAL Mini-Module LVDT signal conditioner, the bundle takes the guesswork out of gauging applications by providing a fully calibrated and complete linear position gauging system ready for immediate operation.
Ideal applications for the solution include dimensional or position measurement in automotive factories, forges and foundries (large shaft TIR measurements), metal fabricating shops, paper and/or plastic film plants, industrial process automation applications and process control.
The EAZY-GAGE bundle can be specified with a variety of Macro Sensors’ GHSA/R 750 series position sensors that are available in stroke ranges from 2,5 to 10 mm. These heavy-duty, spring-loaded linear position transducers offer consistent measurement in harsh dimensional gauging applications with high temperatures or hostile environments.
Position sensors are calibrated with an EAZY-CAL MMX-1000 series Mini Module, a single-channel LVDT signal conditioner that operates on a nominal 15–30 V d.c. power input and provides either a low-noise 0–10 V d.c. or 4–20 mA output. Packaged in a DIN-rail mounting thermo-plastic case, the signal conditioners can be remotely located by up to 30+ metres to facilitate LVDT operation in extreme environments. Cables are available in predetermined lengths from 2 to 30 metres to suit specific installations.
