Digital Displacement Sensors | Compact Gauge Probes

The good features of conventional LVDT sensor combined with Solartron’s digital technology has resulted in a range of digital displacement sensors that provide the gauge builder with cost effective solutions. The range has been expanded further with the addition of the digital displacement sensor – D6P/S which has all the excellent features of standard digital displacement sensors but is only 6 mm diameter.

The 6 mm diameter gauging probes like all Solartron’s digital displacement sensors and displacement transducers can be combined using the Orbit Digital Measurement Network to quickly build a gauging system with sensors that operate and are calibrated straight from the box.

Combining multiple sensors using the Orbit Digital Measurement network is easy and data can be read using a Solartron readout or the Gauge Computer Software making system integration simple.

Like a conventional LVDT the displacement probe tip is pushed out using an internal spring. The precision bearings inside the digital displacement senor ensure precise positioning of the contact senor tip. At the same time the unique bearing design provides repeatable measurements even when the displacement transducer is subjected to mechanical side loads.
