LZ-19 Series
LVIT Linear Position Sensor
Through-bore LVIT Linear Position Sensor for Applications Needing Superior Stroke-to-Length Ratio

The LZ-19 Series of LVIT (Linear Variable Inductance Transducer) position sensors are contactless devices designed for use in factory automation or assembly machinery applications where space is a premium, as well as for external mounting on pneumatic cylinders to sense rod position.

The LVIT is offered in nominal full scale ranges from 0.1 to 30 inches (2.5 to 750 mm) with an excellent stroke-to-length ratio. The sensor has a 19 mm (3/4 inch) outside diameter stainless steel or optional aluminum body with a 1 m axial cable for I/O connections. The 6 mm (0.236 inch) diameter through-bore of an LZ-19 provides clearance for its 5.2 mm (0.200 inch) diameter, PVDF-sheathed moving rod, which is made of the same material as its housing. This through-bore feature also means that the sensor is not subject to damage from typical mechanical overstroking.

Technical datasheets and additional information can be found below.
