      Calibration Tools Used for Displacement Transducers.

      This article will discuss tools to calibrate a displacement transducer to ensure that your testing results are accurate and reliable, reducing the likelihood of errors.

      This article offers essential guidance on calibrating a displacement transducer to achieve precise testing results. Calibration is the process of aligning the transducer's output with established standard values. It requires specialized tools and expertise, so it is crucial to adhere closely to the manufacturer's instructions. Whenever possible, it is recommended that you have your transducers calibrated by a qualified professional.

       

      Calibration Tool Options:

      1. Purchase (or make your own) a dial indicator-style device. Here are some examples:
        1. Displacement Transducer Calibration System



        2. LSCT Displacement Transducer Calibration Device (25 mm)



      2. Buy an indicator stand and feeler gages and/or gage blocks to use for calibration.  Here are some examples:
        1. 3673 Indicator Stand W/ Square Anvil, 3/8" Stem Hole 8MM Bushing



        2. RS 10. MA Gage Block Set



        3. Parallel Feeler Gage Set
