Product catalog summary
Overview
The Series 1000 Oscillator/Demodulators are designed to provide comprehensive electrical support for AC Linear Variable Differential Transformers (LVDTs). They operate from an unregulated DC input to generate a stable sinusoidal excitation voltage for the transducer. The secondary voltages from the LVDT are converted into DC voltage by a phase-sensitive demodulator, which features automatic phase synchronization to simplify installation and setup.

Key Features
  • Compatible with 5 and 6 wire LVDTs
  • Offers DC Voltage or 4-20 mA Output
  • Internally regulated with high frequency response
  • Includes zero and span controls, full encapsulation, threaded inserts for mounting, and self-locking terminal strips

Electrical Specifications
  • Input Voltage: ±14.5 to ±28 VDC, polarity protected
  • Output Voltage: Adjustable from 4.25 to 5.75 VRMS with a 15-turn span control
  • Signal Output Voltage: Limited to ±12 VDC
  • Signal Output Current: 4-20 mA output with a sensitivity of 0.5 V/V (±10%)
  • Accuracy: Non-linearity of ±0.05% max over ±10 VDC output
  • Temperature Range: Operating from 0°C to +85°C, Storage from -55°C to +125°C

Connection and Installation
The module accepts #16 AWG wire with self-locking screw terminals. For 4-wire LVDT connections, access to the center connection of both secondaries is required.

Sales Options
  • Option X0003: Special zero offset and/or sensitivity
  • Option X0005: Special cutoff frequency

Output Versions
Models are available for both voltage and 4-20 mA output, with specifications for frequency, phase angle, and frequency response detailed in the documentation. Current loop impedance must be between 5 and 400 Ohms for linear operation.

Series 1000 Specs-1

Oscillator/ Demodulator INTERCONNECTION DIAGRAM The Series 1000 Oscillator/Demodulators provide complete electrical support for AC LVDTs. Working from an unregulated DC input, the modules generate a stable sinusoidal excitation voltage for the transducer. The LVDT’s secondary voltages are converted into DC voltage by the module’s phase sensitive demodulator. The demodulator has automatic phase synchronization which simplifies installation and setup by eliminating the need to make phase angle adjustments for each transducer. An active, three-pole filter in the final stage reduces output ripple while maximizing frequency response. Other features include zero and span controls, full encapsulation, threaded inserts for mounting, and self locking terminal strips. DIMENSIONAL DIAGRAM KEY FEATURES • Works with 5 and 6 wire LVDTs • DC Voltage or 4-20 mA Output • Internally Regulated • High Frequency Response NOTE: 1. 4 wire LVDT connection requires access to the center connection of both secondaries. One wire from each of the secondaries and the primary will be tied together and attached to COMMON. The remaining three leads will be connected as shown in the connection diagram.
