Product catalog summary
Overview
Meggitt Sensing Systems specializes in various measurement products including LVDTs, inertial systems, inclinometers, accelerometers, IMUs, MEMS sensors, servo-inclinometers, and conditioners. Their products are applicable in sectors such as aerospace, energy, measurement, and railway.

Product Specifications
The SX36RV SI RVDT sensor operates with a power supply of 2.2Vrms ±20% at 3500Hz ±50Hz. It can withstand mechanical loads up to 30N in both axial and radial directions. The operating and storage temperature range is -40°C to +100°C.

Applications
This sensor is used for valve position measurement and steam turbine servo-valve control. It provides a sinusoidal signal with linear voltage over the measurement range, and the core angle is proportional to the difference in secondary outputs.

Performance and Construction
The sensor allows full rotation but is typically used within ±45° for optimal linearity, which is within 0.5% of full scale. The linearity improves to 0.1% for a range of ±5°. It operates in AC/AC mode and can be paired with the Meggitt 690 210 266 signal conditioner. Constructed from light anodized alloy, it features a 20-meter ETFE isolated cable.

Safety and Usage
The sensor is suitable for use in surface industries and explosive atmospheres (zone 1). For zone 0 use, consultation is required. The external housing includes aluminum, necessitating protection against impact or friction.

Technical Specifications at +25°C
  • Stroke: ±10° to ±60°
  • Full scale: 20° to 120°
  • Non-linearity: ±0.25% to ±1.5% of FS
  • Sensitivity: 2.5±0.25 mV/V/°
  • Zero null voltage: 10 mVrms max
  • Primary impedance: 140 Ω
  • Secondary impedance: 720 Ω
  • Primary resistance: 44±20% Ω
  • Secondary resistance: 330±20% Ω
Note: The sensor must be used with intrinsically safe devices.

Selection Guide
Product references vary based on stroke, with specific marking details for temperature ratings (T6 to T4) and ambient temperature limits (<60°C to <100°C).

RVDT sensor Utilization range The mechanical loads applied to the axis must not exceed Meggitt (Sensorex) (IS) SX36RV provides a sinusoidal signal, with a linear voltage over the measurement range. The primary is excited by an AC voltage, and is picked up by the secondary winding on the transformer principle; the position of the rotating core determines the transformer ratio of each secondary winding. As the secondaries are wound in opposition, the difference between the secondary outputs is proportional to the core angle, relative to the housing. The zero position is where each secondary voltage is equal and opposite. This is determinate in factory, and the position marked on both spindle and housing. • Valve position measurement • Steam turbine servo-valve A rotary displacement sensor is free to make a full rotation, however, in practice, it is only usually used up to ±45°, where the linearity is within 0.5% of full scale. This linearity improves as the range decreases, typically 0.1% for a range of ±5°. This series works with an AC/AC mode, and the signal can be treated with the Meggitt (Sensorex) 690 210 266 signal conditioner. The sensor is made from a light anodized alloy. Output is given through a 20 meter ETFE isolated cable with gauge 26 copper wires. - In permanent presence of gaseous explosive atmosphere (zone 1) (for a zone 0 - With the gas listed in subdivisions MB, IIC (*) the RVDT external housing includes aluminum; it shall be protected against any impact Meggitt Sensing Systems Our measurement product competencies: - ™, Anninnnrinn f rt r LVDTs I Inertial systems I Inclinometers I Accelerometers I IMU I zt MEMS sensors I Servo-inclinometer I Conditioners extreme f=> l~l VI TO PI ITI e
