    Linear Measuring System

Applied Measurements developed a simplified linear measuring system that uses displacement transducers in order to measure linear displacement over an extended range. Based on a four-arm Wheatstone-Bridge design with a nominal impedance of 350 Ohms, the measuring system ensures excellent non-linearity, low power consumption and temperature stability. Additionally, the characteristics of strain gauge based sensors provide more accurate linear sensing. These displacement sensors operate on low cost DC strain indicators or digital voltmeters. The range of AML-SGD displacement sensors are precision assemblies contained within a rugged stainless steel outer casing. The internal construction of the AML-SGD transducer ensures a smooth, virtually frictionless movement of the inner core, resulting in high overall accuracy of <+/- 0.1%.
