LVDT Linear Position Sensor Manufacturer Macro Sensors Launches New Application Oriented Web Site

Pennsauken, NJ, April 27, 2010…

Looking for an LVDT linear position sensor that can perform in a rugged industrial application? Sensor manufacturer Macro Sensors has redesigned its web site to make it easier for design engineers to find LVDT linear position sensors and RVDT rotary position sensors that meet the performance criteria of applications in specific industries.

Finding that many web visitors were unsure of what type of sensor that might meet their application requirements, Macro Sensor wanted to simplify sensor selection by visually grouping its LVDT and RVDT position sensors by target markets. Now, Macro Sensors’ web site segments LVDT and RVDT position sensors into application categories, grouping those that best operate in conditions prevalent in:

• Energy/Power Gen
• Factory Automation
• Aerospace/Military
• Hydraulics/Pneumatics
• Industrial OEM
• Civil Engineering/R&D
• Sub Sea/Marine
• Transportation

In addition to providing detailed product specifications and drawings on every product, Macro Sensors’ web site also features application stories and press releases that explain how different linear and rotary position sensors are implemented in specific industrial and military applications. For more information on Macro Sensors product line of LVDT based linear position sensors and RVDT based rotary position sensors, go to the web site at www.macrosensors.com or contact the factory at positionsensors@macrosensors.com.
