Contact Distance Sensors / LVDT
A durable and oil-resistant contact displacement sensor that can be used safely in environments exposed to water and oil. Along with a rich selection of heads, two detection methods are available, LVDT (linear variable differential transformer) and KEYENCE’s proprietarily developed Scale Shot System II.
Products Lineup
The Scale Shot System in the GT2 Series improves upon the technology of conventional contact sensors and is now concentrated into a pencil-type sensor head.
Features
IP67G Oil-Resistant Design for Measurement in Machine Processing and Other Oily Environments
The sensor head - including the connector and cable section - are IP67G and NEMA Type 13 compliant. This means that stable measurement is achieved even in harsh environments containing splashing water or oil. In order to improve robustness - a common problem with contact sensors - careful attention was paid to the structure of the sensor body. The design incorporates a high-strength linear ball bearing and a seamless body for additional durability. In addition, the reduced weight of the spindle means minimal wear from friction and significantly improved durability. These design improvements reduce maintenance and equipment downtime.
