Linear Position Sensors
Kavlico LVDTs are the standard for flight and fuel control position?measurements. Our LVDTs have been improved for over 50 years, and over 1 million Kavlico LVDTs are installed in aircraft worldwide.Kavlico LVDTs operate using a non-contacting transduction principle providing friction free motion and infinite resolution. This principle has been refined through manufacturing and test technology, to make our LVDTs the standard for flight and fuel control position measurements. Our success stems from our ability to manufacture matched multiple sensors (channels) for redundancy.
Multiple channels are provided in a variety of housing designs that may be mounted directly on airframe control and cockpit control surfaces or provided as an integral part of a servo valve or main ram actuator.
