Hydraulically actuated valves come in all shape and sizes. Our sensors
have been specified for valves in hydroelectric dams, underwater turbines,
and mining operations.

CPI SL Series sensors are the only internal position sensors
which will work on telescoping cylinders. These are used to
raise platforms on land-based drilling rigs. Sensors are
required to synchronize the cylinders.

19. Piston AccumulatorsPiston Accumulators
This is an outstanding application for SL Series sensors, as there is no
better way to sense the potential within the accumulator. Manufacturers
have used pressure and flow sensors, which do not provide true piston
position due to inevitable system losses. They’ve even designed rod-
type sensors into a few applications, which require substantial design
accommodations, and the addition of another leak point where the probe
passes through the piston.
