Position Sensor for Extreme Environment

Position Sensor for Extreme Environment


Maintaining the perfect alignment of a particle detector in a gap measuring only 0.050" (1.27mm), at 300°F (149°C) and in a chamber exposed to 2 tesla magnetic fields along with 107 RADS of radiation is not a job for your average displacement sensor. Fortunately, Capacitec is not a supplier of average displacement sensors. Our sensors thrive in harsh environments. Capacitec model HPB sensors were indeed installed directly in the chamber of this particle accelerator at CERN where the sensors have performed flawlessly since the late 1980s. Another nasty sensor environment can be found inside a gas turbine engine rotating from 30k to 150k rpm. Here again Capacitec sensors sustain this challenging environment while taking critical blade tip clearance measurements at 1600°F (871°C).

  • Particle accelerators
  • Linear inductive motors
  • Diesel fuel injectors
  • Gas turbine blade tip clearance
  • Vibration measurements to 200 kHz
  • Turbochargers
  • High vacuum and Cryogenic Processes
