Length Transducer (LVDT) and Extensometer Calibration
Electrical length transducers and extensometers are used for measurement of deformations, displacements and extensions during mechanical testing of materials, in test laboratories and in long-term structural monitoring. Proper calibration is essential for reliable evaluation and for traceability to length standards.
Metrological activities
- Calibration of electrical length transducers in accordance with STN EN ISO 14978 and STN EN ISO 463.
- Calibration of extensometers used in mechanical testing of materials according to STN EN ISO 9513.
- Calibration of transducers with voltage, current and pulse output.
- Calibration of various types of length transducers:
- incremental length transducers (measuring scales, linear encoders)
- resistive (potentiometric) length transducers
- Up to 100 mm, calibration using a length calibrator; above 100 mm up to 650 mm, calibration using reference incremental length transducers.
Extensometer and LVDT calibration
- We also calibrate inductive length transducers of the LVDT type.
- In extensometer calibration we evaluate the accuracy class according to ISO 9513 (classes 0.2, 0.5, 1 and 2).
