A multiturn potentiometer can be used to measure a linear motion by translating it to a turning movement, for instance in actuators. The multiturn potentiometer offers an absolute positioning in a cost effective way.
Our multiturn potentiometers come in 3, 5,10 or 20 turn versions as standard. Per request, anything between 1 and 30 turns versions are available. The S46HD series is also available with incorporated limit-switches with a capacity up to 5A, 125V.
Chose from different types of resistive element to match you’re the needs of your specific application regarding life expectancy, resolution and linearity.
