Potentiometric displacement sensor is used for direct or non-direct, precise measurement of mechanical displacement. Potentiometers have high resolution to conduct linear or angular motion displacements and they always operate with a sliding contact system.
Potentiometers allow changes in the resistance in a circuit and functioning as a variable voltage divider. Potentiometer is commonly used in research laboratories, industrial processing, and robotics as well as on medical, construction and agriculture equipment for various control purposes.
Potentiometer Overview
-
High IP rating
Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick or slip, resistance to abrasion
-
High speed
Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick or slip, resistance to abrasion
-
Length measurement w/o rod
Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick or slip, resistance to abrasion
-
Miniature
Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick or slip, resistance to abrasion
-
Transducer
Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick or slip, resistance to abrasion
