13FLP Linear-motion Potentiometer
|
|
Linear-motion Potentiometers are compact in size, light in weight and are capable of transforming mechanical linear movements into corresponding electrical variations. Easy to operate and handy, they are suitable for measurement of linear movements in various machinery and tools and displacements in linearly moving objects such as steering angles, numerical control tooling machines, robots, etc. The resistive element in this series is made of conductive plastic (FLP-A) which features high resolution, long life expectancy and excellent high speed tracking ability.

Notes:
1. In case of the potentiometer with special resistance values and special specifications, the above performances may change and therefore, please consult us in advance, separately.
2. As for operating temperature range. we can not guarantee that all values of performances can satisfy within this operating
temperature range.
3. The above values of performances based on each testing were measured after each testing completed, respectively, under
standard conditions. As for the values during testing and other values not mentioning in the above table, please ask us separately.
