India LVDT & RVDT Market Segment Analysis - By Category
AC-Operated LVDT and RVDTs are growing at a highest CAGR of 12.5% in the
forecast period. AC-operated LVDT can be
constructed from a wide range of different materials to achieve maximum
performance. These AC Operated LVDTs are ideal to be used as positioning system
for downhole drilling in oil and gas applications where sensors are exposed to
extreme pressure and temperature. In addition due to the absence of the
internal electronics in AC LVDTs, the core assembly can be designed as vented
housing or hermetically sealed and the materials can be freely selected to
accommodate for higher pressure, corrosive environment or even underwater area.
Similarly, AC operated Rotary Variable Differential Transformers have a solid
reputation for robustness and reliability in harsh conditions, and equipment
manufacturers in the aerospace, defence, oil & gas sectors typically
consider AC operated RVDTs as the default choice for high reliability or
safety-related applications such as missile seekers, precision avionics and
high precision servo controls. Hence these advantages are analysed to drive the
market in the forecast period 2021-2026.
