Potentiometric
Simple and accurate
The technology which answers most needs

 Angular and Rotary Sensors
 Linear Sensors
 Adapted Sensors

     


Wire-wound angular sensors consist of a wound resistive wire. This technology offers excellent linearity together with a high power rating. It also offers very low nominal resistance, starting at 20 Ω.

 Angular sensor: up to 358°
 Rotary sensor: up to 10 turns
 Linearity: from 0.1 % to 0.5 %
 Service life: 2 million shaft revolutions
 Power rating: up to 7 W


Conductive plastic technology is used in both angular and linear sensors. It provides a very significant increase in the service life of the sensors (up to 50 million shaft revolutions), and a so-called infinite resolution.


 Angular sensor: up to 350°
 Linear sensor: up to 1000 mm
 Linearity: from 0.15 % à 2 %
 Service life: up to 50 million shaft
revolutions
 Power rating: up to 3 W


Hybrid angular sensors are a combination of the wire-wound and the plastic technologies.
A resistive plastic fi lm applied on the
winding provides the combined advantages of both these technologies.

 Angular sensor: up to 358°
 Rotary sensor: up to 10 turns
 Linearity: from 0.1 % to 0.5 %
 Service life: from 2 to 10 million shaft revolutions
 Power rating: up to 7 W
