The E Series of LVDTs is highly economical, satisfying numerous
applications in which LVDT performance and reliability are desired, but
where budgets are limited. With a linearity of just ±0.5% of full range
(E 2000, ±1.0%), the E Series is suitable for most applications with
moderate operating temperature environments. Housed in magnetic
stainless steel for protection against electromagnetic and electrostatic
interference, the E Series rugged construction is capable of resisting
the shock and vibration of most industrial applications.
Like in most of our LVDTs, the E Series windings are vacuum
impregnated with a specially formulated, high temperature, flexible
resin, and the coil assembly is potted inside its housing with a two-
component epoxy. This provides excellent protection against hostile
environments such as high humidity, vibration and shock.
