The NewTek GAR Series gage head sensors are spring-loaded AC LVDTs with excellent linearity, high sensitivity and infinite resolution. Construction consists of a stainless steel probe assembly and 0.750 inch diameter hermetically sealed housing. Electrical connection is made through a radially mounted connector, resulting in a reduced housing length. Designed for a wide range of position measurement and dimensional gaging applications, they are available in ranges of ±0.50 inch (±1.27mm) to ±2 inches (±50mm). The GAR Series windings are potted inside its housing with a 2 component epoxy, providing excellent protection against hostile environments.
