LRT Sensors designs and manufactures a standard series of non-contact linear sensors using our patented DIST (Distributed Impedance Sensor Technology) technology. This know-how is also applicable to rotary, gap sensing and liquid level applications on a custom basis. LRT’s sensors compare favorably to traditional technologies such as LVDT’s and magnetostrictive sensors from a cost, accuracy and resolution perspective and are impervious to harsh environments such as high temperature (225° C), high shock and vibration, high magnetic fields and high radiation. They are used in a wide variety of applications in the aircraft, medical, recreation, farm and construction equipment industries. In addition to new and OEM applications they are easily adapted to replace existing LVDT’s and magnetostrictive sensors and can readily be incorporated internally into hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. The sensors have no wear parts and can therefore deliver long trouble-free service.
