LVIT / LVDT Aerospace / Military

The Aerospace and Naval/Air Force industry requires linear position sensing on ailerons, flaperons, and tail rudder actuators as well as cylinder actuators used in launch pads. All ground and Naval forces use many heavy industrial vehicles that require measurements in their cylinder actuators and valves for tank level, turret motion feedback, etc. With ranges up to 1m, ASG in-cylinder linear sensors, LVDTs and LVIT sensors have been designed for the ruggedized and harsh environments found in these markets. Products are designed and manufactured in the United States and meet ITAR and DFARS clauses commonly required.

LVDT Linear Position Sensors LA-27-A Series

Alliance Sensors Group LA-27-A series LVDT linear position sensors are designed to handle extreme industrial environments. This robust linear sensor has a thick wall aluminum housing (also available in stainless steel), a core enclosed inside of the core extension rod assembly that cannot break loose, while offering a sturdy male thread for easy mechanical connection, and a pair of double contact shaft seals to keep fluids and solid contaminants out of its bore. The sensor’s electrical termination includes the choice of an axial connector or a cord grip with a cable.
An LA-27-A LVDT is ideal for roller gap positioning, head box feedback, process ...

The MR-7 Series LVIT (Linear Variable Inductance Transducer) Position Sensors from Alliance Sensors Group has been designed as an alternative to magnetostrictive sensors and has more robust construction and a lower cost of ownership. The unit can be port mounted in industrial or moble hydraulic cylinders and pneumatic actuators. These MR-7 Series sensors are based on a proprietary contactless inductive sensing technology that employs a 7 mm diameter probe with a shorter stroke-to-length ratio than most other technologies, and uses a gun drilled hole in the cylinder rod for sensing the rod position rather than requiring a ring magnet assembly. An MR-7 has a ...

Alliance Sensors Group LV-45 series LVIT (Linear Variable Inductance Transducer) position sensors are specifically targeted for measuring applications requiring rugged devices, whether measuring position of steam turbine valves, mounted in a paper mill head box or calender roll stand, or operating outdoors fastened to a bridge or structure. LV-45 sensors use a contactless inductive technology that allows them to replace other technology sensors like potentiometers and DC LVDTs in most applications. With a simple coil design, a captive connecting rod, and a thick-walled housing, the sensors are both shorter and more robust than their DC-LVDT counterparts while ...

The LA-21-A series AC LVDTs offers the robust designs for which Alliance Sensors Group is known in typical industrial packages, with full ranges from 3 inches (75 mm) to 15 inches (375 mm). They are supplied in a zinc-plated-steel 0.805 inch (20.5 mm) diameter housing with 4-inch (100 mm) stripped-and-tinned axial leads. Each LVDT’s core is enclosed in a 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) diameter extension rod from which it cannot break loose and has a 5/16-24 UNF or M8 X 1.25 male thread for easy attachment. LA-21-A AC-LVDTs are ideal for stamping or drawing press die opening, injection molding machine platen position, process valve controls, and roller gap feedback in ...

Alliance Sensors Group’s LA-25-R series of AC-LVDT linear position sensors have been designed for use in steel, aluminum, and paper mills; fluid power systems; and steam or hydro power plants. These heavy duty sensors use a thick wall aluminum housing (stainless steel available) with an open bore and radial terminations that include a cable in a cord grip, a heavy duty industrial connector, or an optional high temperature connector, with which the LA-25-R is a natural choice as a heavy duty replacement for older through-bore LVDTs with a radial connector found in some steam power plants for valve position.
The core of the LA-25-R is enclosed in a 3/8 ...

The GHS-19 series of LVIT (Linear Variable Inductive Transducer) spring-loaded position sensors by Alliance Sensors Group are contactless devices designed for dimension measurements in QA labs, or position measuring applications in factory automation systems and in various industrial and commercial applications such as automotive testing, mil/aero test stands, robotic arms, and packaging equipment, where the sensing element cannot be attached to the object being measured. GHS-19s are offered in nominal full scale ranges from 6.35 to 100 mm (0.25 to 4.0 inches) with excellent resolution and high stroke-to-body-length ratios. The maximum tip contact force ...

The LHA-19-A series AC LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) linear position sensors by H.G. Schaevitz LLC dba Alliance Sensors Group are hermetically sealed, contactless devices designed for industrial and commercial applications such as factory automation, metal and paper mills, valve position, robotic assembly systems, pharmaceutical and food processing, and outdoor wet environment applications. These ruggedized linear devices have excellent price vs performance and stroke-to-length ratio, making the LHA-19-A AC-LVDT sensors ideal for use in power generation and industrial automation equipment, and many OEM positioning ...

Alliance Sensors Group's model S2A DIN-rail-mounting LVDT signal conditioner is designed specifically for the power generation industry. It offers comprehensive diagnostics for sensor or wiring failure, real time recalibration of the Full Span and Zero outputs, enhanced ground loop noise rejection, and backward compatibility to legacy S1A signal conditioners. Utilizing front panel push buttons for easy calibration, the S2A is engineered to work with the widest range of LVDT, RVDT, and inductive half-bridge LVRT sensors by providing four excitation frequencies that will operate most AC-LVDTs over a 50 to 5,000 mVrms range of sensor ...

Alliance Sensors Group's SC-200 DIN-rail-mounting LVDT signal conditioner for industrial measuring systems, testing laboratories, and factory automation offers push buttons for fast and easy calibration of the Full Sale and Zero outputs, differiential input to minimize ground loop noise, and color-coded screw terminal plugs for quick hook up. The SC-200 is engineered to work with a very wide range of LVDT, RVDT, and inductive half-bridge (LVRT) sensors by providing four excitation frequencies that operate most AC-LVDTs over a 50 to 5,00 mVrms range of sensor output. SC-200 modules offer a choice of 8 analog outputs and half-duplex RS-485 digital comm port ...
