NewTek Introduces RV Series of RVDT Rotary Position Sensors

NewTek Sensor Solutions introduced the RV series of RVDT Rotary Position Sensors that offer angular displacement measurement of rotating elements such as quarter-turn ball and butterfly valves, actuators, throttles and dancer arm tensioners used in industrial machine-to-machine applications. With a shaft that rotates a full 360° with no stops and virtually no friction, these AC-operated rotary position sensors measure shaft angle position over a nominal range of ±30°.

These AC-operated analog RVDTs are shock and vibration tolerant to provide feedback even when operating in conditions often found in packaging and automation applications. Units operate over a temperature range of -65°F to 220°F and exhibit a linearity error of less than 0.5% of full range.

NewTek offers the RV series in both a size 8 (0.75”) and size 11 (1.06”) diameter with standard servo mounts for immediate shipment. Operating from 7.5 V rms (nominal), the AC-operated RVDTs provide an analog signal output that can be used with NewTek’s NTC-6000 Signal Conditioner for a complete measurement solution. The RV sensor can operate in the harsh conditions while the signal conditioner is stationed in a nonvolatile area.
