(NewTek: Pennsauken, NJ) -- NewTek manufactures custom linear position sensing units in various strokes, sizes, and materials engineered to operate reliably in hostile environments where temperatures can reach up to 200 °C.

Unlike magnetostrictive position sensors and other electronic sensing technologies, which depend on integrated electronics that can degrade or fail under prolonged heat, NewTek AC-operated LVDTs contain no internal microelectronics at the sensing element. This design reduces thermal drift, eliminates the need for extensive shielding and cooling, provides superior survivability under sustained high temperatures, and allows simplified mechanical installation.
