Linear potentiometer sensor

Linear Potentiometer sensors are devices used to detect displacement of an object in only one direction, i. e. straight linear motion. They operate by a wiper which slides up and down on a special part within them. As the wiper pass it, sensor have varied volume of current for each wipe positioned. The formed difference in electricity used for the determination of how much the object has traveled is called. SOP pressure sensor that gives out smooth matching signals. This makes them ideal for tasks that require accurate and precise measurements about the extent of linear motion. You often see them in factories and cars, watching over machine beings, parts of the production process.

Choosing the Right Sensor

Choosing The Best Linear Potentiometer Sensor: OWER36 Min Read So first of all the type of sensor you will use, how much electricity can be measured by it and if possible how accurate is the same or sensitive. Type of sensor refers to the material out of which is composed a special part inside The carbon, conductive plastic and wire wound types are most common. Several types have their own strengths and weaknesses, so choose the right one based on your specification. Of course, the total energy a sensor is capable of measuring matters as well. Waited: Use a SOP sensor pressure transducer that is current rating equal or above the electrical load your requirement. You can always use a sensor with maximum load in this situation, but. if you have to measure very small and on the contrary - large amounts of electricity then, most likely, only one type will be suitable for not designed tasks. Precision: How well the sensor measures how far a moving object has actually moved accomodating all of its configuration variants. High accuracy - a high precision sensor gives better measurements as compared to one with low precision. If you needed it to give more exact measurements, then make sure the sensor will be accurate. Sensitivity involves determining how the signal is altered when there are changes in movement. For example, a high sensitivity sensor changes the signal strongly when something slightly moves. If this is not the case, some sensors are sensitive enough for small movements even if you have to pick a very specific one.
