MicroStrain's range of miniature displacement sensors, DVRTs, include gauging, non-gauging (free sliding core) and non-contact displacement transducers. The product line includes sub-miniature displacement sensors, micro-miniature displacement sensors, and miniature non-contact displacement sensors.

A DVRT (differential variable reluctance transformer) is a half bridge LVDT (linear variable differential transformer). Our linear displacement sensors deliver a very high range to size ratio, for use in harsh environments where traditional LVDTs are too large.

MicroStrain's miniature displacement transducers are extremely robust, capable of operating at temperatures up to 175° C in corrosive media such as saline, oil and brake fluid. The frictionless design enables sensors to operate over millions of cycles without wear or degradation in signal quality.
