The Series LWU is a family of submersible LVDT displacement transducers available in either DC or AC versions. These units are specifically designed for use in sea water and other submersible environments, including many corrosive liquids. The LWU Series features unguided armatures with stroke lengths from 0.5” to 4” and linearity of +/- 1%. Operating temperature is from -40 to 140 deg.F. The LWU60X is an AC/AC unit with v/v output. The LWU61X and LWU65X are DC/DC units with outputs of +/-5 Vdc or 0-10 Vdc and 4-20mA, respectively. The LWU units are made of 316 stainless steel, and are fully welded. The heavy duty construction...

Stellar Technology offers submersible long stroke LVDTs with the LYU60X and the LYS60X. These AC/AC displacement transducers are designed specifically for applications in which the sensor is submerged in fresh water or most other non-corrosive liquids and gases for prolonged periods. These displacement transducers are ruggedly constructed of all stainless-steel and are able to withstand harsh underwater environments as found in mining, upstream oilfield, geophysical, and industrial processes. Model LYU60X features an unguided armature with a stroke range from ±0.5” to ±8”; while the LYS60X has an internal spring return and a ±0.5” to ±3” stroke range. Both units deliver ±0.5% linearity and are built to...

The Series MIN830 miniature load cells and force sensors from Stellar Technology are now available in full scale ranges of 10, 25, 50, and 100 lbf. With the addition of these new lower ranges, the MIN830 ranges extend from 10 lbf. to 30,000 lbf. The MIN830 Series are compact compression load cells as small as 1” in diameter, with an accuracy of 0.5% and a standard output of 2 mV/V. Optional configurations of the MIN830 load cells include high level analog voltage and current outputs, as well as digital outputs. Custom configurations and ranges (including metric units) are also available. These rugged force sensors...

Stellar Technology’s Model GT100 is a robust, heavy-duty pressure transducer designed as a solution for severe applications like rocket engine testing that can ruin a typical pressure sensor. Model GT100 features a cleanable pressure cavity and a stainless-steel diaphragm which can be replaced in the field as needed, renewing the sensor in just a few minutes. The GT100 has a standard output of 3mV/V and delivers linearity and hysteresis of 0.25% across pressure ranges from 150 psig to 20,000 psig. Exceptional thermal isolation ensures reliable performance over an operating temperature of -100°F to +300°F. The compensated temperature range is -30°to +170°F, which can be extended to -65°to...
