Multiturn hybrid potentiometer HHS17

Very precise and durable servo flange potentiometer for a wide range of applications

The HHS17 series was developed for applications that require a very precise and durable multiturn potentiometer with servo flange. With a compact Ø22 mm housing and a wide range of options, this potentiometer is ideal for applications where accuracy and reliability are essential.

The potentiometers have a wirewound resistor element that is coated with a conductive plastic layer. This eliminates the so-called winding jumps and the resolution is almost infinite. Due to the smooth surface of the resistive element, the hybrid potentiometer has a significantly longer lifetime and qualifies it as a position feedback sensor in bearing control loops.

The HHS17 potentiometers can optionally be equipped with a slipping clutch, which protects the potentiometer from damage caused by travelling over the end stops. The potentiometer is available with 3, 5 or 10 turns.

Options:

• Multiturn: Available in 3, 5 and 10 turns
• Slipping clutch: Protection against overturning of the end stops
• Resistance values: 1 kOhm to 100 kOhm
• Linearity: ±0.25 % (option up to ±0.1 %)
• Resistance tolerance: ±10 % (option: ±5 %)
• Shaft adaptations: Various geometries and lengths available
• Center tap: Enables voltage or current tapping at a defined point on the resistor track and extends the functionality, this enables the additional output of measurements
