Non-contact displacement sensors using eddy current technology measure distances, displacements, or positions of any electrically-conductive target. These objects may have both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic properties. Due to the high insensitivity to oil, dirt, dust, moisture, interference fields, etc. the eddy current principle is ideally suited to applications in harsh industrial environments. Eddy current transducers designed for industrial use in factory automation, for machine monitoring, for inspection and for measuring and testing.
