How Position Transducers Are Used in Industry and Science

Position transducers are used in a broad range of position, displacement, and velocity measurement applications to:

• Measure distance traveled
• Continually sense location or relative position
• Indicate levels
• Act as limit sensors
• Control actuators through position sensing
• Act as signal generators for recording position versus time, cycle rate, or magnitude of random/cycle events
• Monitor relative motion
• Indicate events
