About the R30D RVDT

The R30D RVDT (Rotary Variable Differential Transformer) is a DC operated non-contacting rotary position transducer. Integrated signal conditioning enables the R30D to operate from a bipolar ±15 VDC supply, and provide a high level DC output that is proportional to the full angular sensing range of the device. Calibrated for operation over ±30 degrees, the R30D provides a +/-3.75VDC output, with a non-linearity of less than ±0.25% of full range. Extended range operation up to a maximum of ±60 degrees is possible with increased non-linearity.

Internally, the DC supply voltage is converted into an AC carrier signal which excites the primary coil of the sensor. An integrated demodulator amplifier with low-pass filter converts the differential secondary output into a smooth, high level, linear DC output signal relative to the angular position of the shaft.

High reliability and performance are achieved through the use of a specially shaped rotor and wound coil that together simulates the linear displacement of a Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT). Non-contact electromagnetic coupling of the rotor provides infinite resolution thus enabling absolute measurements to a fraction of a degree.

The R30D features a rugged aluminum size 11 housing making this rotary position sensor ideal for applications where integrated signal conditioning and small size are required.
