Product Description

Rotary Position Sensor

Staging flexibility with continuous outputs

Rotary position sensor is a thru mode membrane potentiometer constructed with two layers of PET film. The first layer is printed with conductive silver. Second layer is printed with conductive silver terminal and resistive carbon on top of it. Combining the layer with adhesive spacer separated the layers as spacing within the sensor and stay open circuit. Position sensors have a total of three terminals; one terminal at the conductive silver layer and the other two terminals are at each end of resistive carbon. By contacting the silver layer and carbon layer, potentiometer start close circuit and generate various resistance value that depends on the position of where pressure is applied. The closer to connected terminal, the lower resistance outputs.

 

Ceradex offers rotary potentiometer sensors for customers to prototype and furthermore provides customize solutions by projects’ request.
