L.V.D.T Products
-
Columbia Research Laboratories
Columbia's L.V.D.T.'s are designed for the most demanding high temperature military and industrial applications where maximum life under adverse conditions is required. The corrosion resistant stainless steel housing provides effective shielding to contain the magnetic flux within the transformer, as well as providing protection against external magnetic fields. Conservative design permits the use of these transducers well beyond their specific linear range with minimum loss of accuracy.

General Purpose
-
Columbia Research Laboratories
This group of accelerometers is made up of the 3000 and 5000 Series. The 3000 Series are standard size units, including many with all welded construction, that are hermetically sealed for use in dirty and humid environments. The 5000 Series are smaller and lighter in weight than standard units. Characteristics are almost identical except that with miniature units higher natural frequencies and shock levels can be obtained due to their inherently reduced mass. Sensitivities, however are somewhat lower. High Temperature models are available that operate to +500°F. For best performance use with the Columbia Model 4601 Charge Amplifier or Model 5810 Inline Charge Converter.
