RDP solves the problem of reliable
displacement measurements in harsh environments.
When there is a need to for accurate measurements in harsh
environments, transducer specialist RDP Electronics Ltd has
the solution.
With a comprehensive range of displacement sensors specifically
designed to operate in such situations, the PY and LIN series can
be used in applications including extremely high or low temperatures,
excessive pressures and even nuclear radiation.
The LIN series of contacting displacement sensors utilises a linear
differential inductance principle (LVDT) for measurement ranges
from 10mm up to 50mm with the range including options for maximum
operating temperatures of either 220°C or 600°C. The design of the
LIN transducer has also proved successful at pressures of 3000psi,
minimum temperatures down to 220°C and in nuclear radiation
doses of up to 100,000 MegaRads.
Alternatively, RDP offer the compact PY series designed for non-contact
proximity measurements in similarly harsh environments by using a
variable reluctance principle to measure the distance of a metallic
target from the sensor over ranges of 1.5mm to 6mm.
