ABSTRACT:
In a measuring arrangement for determining the lift of a valve including a cylindrical valve stem member arranged in overlapping telescopic relationship with a stationary cylindrical member so as to be movable relative thereto, one of the cylindrical members has on its surface adjacent the other cylindrical member first and third capacitor structures which are axially spaced, and insulated from, each other and the other is provided on its surface adjacent the one cylindrical member with a second capacitor structure extending axially over the first and third capacitor structures when the valve is in a closed position, all the capacitor structures being electrically connected to a control unit for determining from the capacitance difference between the first and third capacitor structures the position of the valve member.
