Engineers have used inductive-loop probes for many years to troubleshoot high-frequency circuits and locate emissions. These probes, which can be homemade or purchased commercially, rely on mutual ...

Powering portable telemetry systems for long-term monitoring presents interesting design challenges. Batteries are unsuitable for certain critical applications, and, in these circumstances, designers ...

Impact of stray magnetic fields on the electrification of motor vehicles. The role of inductive sensors to reduce risk, cost, and size in EMI-laden applications. The clean and efficient design of ...

What is an LVIT and where are they used? Linear variable inductive transducers (LVITs), which have been around for more than 30 years, are relatively low-cost, contactless position sensing devices.

As the demand for greater control and functionality increases, position-sensor-instrumented hydraulic cylinders are becoming more important in the heavy industry, mobile equipment, and subsea worlds.

Position feedback sensors for hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders have most commonly used one of three technologies: magneto-strictive (MLDTs), variable resistance (pots), and variable inductance (LVITs) ...

H.G. Schaevitz has expanded its sensor product line utilizing LVIT technology by adding the LZ-9.5 Series of miniature linear position sensors. The LZ-9.5 series LVITs are contactless... The ILPS-18S ...
