Inductive frequency modulation displacement sensor, like pressure sensor, is also a new technology developed and researched in long-term scientific experiments. It has withstood the rigorous testing environment, proving its ability to resist the destructive factors such as gamma rays, neutrons, electromagnetic pulses, and vibrations under nuclear explosion conditions, and their effects and impacts on the sensor and frequency modulation measurement system. After transitioning to civilian use, complex and diverse users have put forward many new requirements for sensors. Through multiple improvements using sensor technology, it has been continuously improved and perfected, and serialized to meet the needs of various users. Its successful development has added a new member to the displacement sensor family.

The sensor adopts the oscillation principle and outputs a frequency signal. Its sensitive components are similar to differential inductance and differential transformer displacement sensors, both of which are coil coils and iron cores. Different from it, it only has one coil, which is installed in the same housing as a capacitor and integrated block to form an oscillation circuit. It is powered by DC or power and directly outputs square wave or sine wave signals with peak to peak values greater than. The coil has no symmetry requirement and is designed without a skeleton. Its excellent signal-to-noise ratio and suitability for multi-channel remote transmission are the characteristics of all amplitude modulation sensors. Due to the output of the sensor being a pulse signal, there is no need for analog-to-digital conversion when paired with a microcomputer.

Honeywell manufactures various types of linear displacement sensors. Honeywell's linear displacement sensors are specifically designed to meet the requirements of the vast majority of single point and multi-point industrial measurement applications, as well as small displacement instruments in research laboratories. Honeywell offers models such as iron core free and unguided, spring self return, and guided. The nonlinearity is 0.25% of the full scale, and the measurement range is between ± 0.1in and ± 18.5in. In terms of electronics, we offer two types of sensors, AC and DC, to meet power requirements. The working temperature Z of Honeywell linear displacement sensors is as low as -50 ℃ [-58oF], and as high as 125 ℃ [257oF].

The welded stainless steel structure complements the submersible underwater connector, making Honeywell's equipment an ideal choice for potential applications such as offshore drilling, mining, shipping, and hydraulic engineering. Potential applications of displacement sensors: bearing insertion, building movement, size confirmation, earthquake detection, factory automation, component positioning, force/displacement, hydraulic engineering, inspection fixtures, turbine blade position.
