Description
Model: EDE-PXX
The EDE-PXX is a linear displacement transducer that utilizes a potentiometric sensing element to measure precise linear movement. Functionally, it serves the same applications as the EDE-VXX vibrating wire model, providing an alternative measurement principle where direct analog output is preferred.
The sensor is designed for accurate and repeatable displacement monitoring in crack meters, extensometers, and other structural deformation instruments. Its rugged construction and compact design make it suitable for both laboratory use and long-term field installation in demanding geotechnical environments.
The retractable shaft of the sensor is available with M6 × 1 × 12 mm and M8 × 1.25 × 12 mm male thread options, allowing flexible integration with a variety of geotechnical assemblies and field setups.
