| New potentiometer for industrial control applications  BI Technologies Electronic Components Division has developed a single turn conductive plastic potentiometer with a 22mm diameter. The 6130 Series devices include two types of potentiometers, the 6137 and 6138 types, both of which share the same mechanical outline and include a standard ¼" slotted shaft and 3/8" bushing. The 6130 Series devices utilize an advanced bushing system, making the potentiometers ideal for industrial control applications including medical equipment, welding equipment, crane controls, joysticks, and position sensing in heavy equipment.The 6137 potentiometer with standard mounting configuration is capable of 5 million shaft revolutions, making it ideal for closed loop control systems. The 6138 potentiometer is suitable for applications involving shaft side load or for designs with severe mounting restrictions where the potentiometer does not have a stable mounting surface. The 6138 device has a lifespan of 10 million shaft revolutions, and can withstand a side load of one pound. Both the 6137 and 6138 potentiometers feature a standard resistance range of 1KW to 100KW and an independent linearity of ±1%. Upon request, the potentiometers are available with center tap, flatted shaft and stops. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
