GE Position Sensors on Power Gen Turbines

How they work and how to use them with a third-party LVDT signal conditioner designed specifically for Power Gen Applications

LVDTs (Linear Variable Differential Transformers) are very commonly used as position sensors in power plants throughout the world. Working from AC voltages and frequencies not available from power lines, LVDTs require a signal conditioner to provide the necessary operating power. Alliance Sensors Group's model S1A module, designed specifically to be used in power gen applications, is considered by many power gen users be the most advanced and easy to use single channel LVDT signal conditioner on the market today. It can operate practically any inductive or LVDT-type position sensor currently in use.

DC Power Supplies

There are two distinct types of DC power supplies that convert the AC power line voltage into
DC voltage to operate electronic devices. Linear supplies use a transformer, rectifier diodes, a
regulator, and filtering to produce relatively clean DC, but they are limited to a narrow range of
power input voltages and are usually physically large. Switching supplies offer a wider range
of power input voltages and are usually smaller in size, but often have switching frequency
