    An LVDT is a linear position sensor that uses a movable core inside a fixed coil assembly to measure linear displacement, functioning as a linear variable differential transformer that produces a proportional analog output signal. It has a natural null point in the middle of the core's range of motion and measures position through variations in the transformer's output caused by the core's movement within the coil assembly. LVDTs can be AC or DC, with AC models requiring external signal conditioning and DC models including conditioning components.

    What is an LVDT?

    An LVDT is a Linear Position Sensor


    With a Proportional Analog Output

    An LVDT has 2 Elements, a Moving


    Core and a Stationary Coil Assembly
    L V D Ts
    Linear Variable Differential Transformer

    ► Transformer: AC Input / AC Output

    ► Differential: Natural Null Point in Middle

    ► Variable: Movable Core, Fixed Coil

    ► Linear: Measures Linear Position

    Summary
    ► LVDT’s are robust equipment for measuring
    deflection.
    ► AC LVDT’s require separate signal conditioning
    equipment, while DC LVDT’s include signal
    conditioning equipment on the device.
    ► There are three types of LVDT: unguided
    armature, captive armature, and spring-extended
    armature.
    ► AC LVDT’s cost less than DC, but the entire
    measurement system must be considered.
