950MD Series Housing

Linear Displacement Transducer housing

Gemco 950 Series Mill Duty Housing – Rugged Protection for Linear Displacement Transducers (LDTs)

The Gemco 950MD Mill Duty Housing is specifically designed for applications where mounting a standalone rod-style Linear Displacement Transducer (LDT)—also known as a linear position sensor—is not practical. Whether due to physical damage risk, harsh environmental conditions, or complex mounting constraints, the 950MD offers a proven solution to ensure accurate and reliable position feedback.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Robust Environmental Protection – Shields LDTs from temperature extremes, corrosive media, mechanical shock, vibration, dust, and debris.

  • Durable Stainless-Steel Housing – Engineered for longevity in mill duty and industrial automation environments.

  • Two-Point Mounting System – Accommodates lateral and horizontal movement of machinery, ideal for dynamic or shifting equipment.

  • Retrofit Compatibility – Enables seamless upgrades to existing hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders with modern position feedback technology.

  • Customizable Options – Includes air purge ports for cooling electronics, optional front and rear rod ends, quick disconnect connectors, and protective bellows.

Available in sensor lengths up to 240 inches, the Gemco 950MD is built for the toughest environments—delivering reliable performance in steel mills, foundries, stamping presses, and other heavy-duty applications.
