Potentiometric Linear Transducer MLR10

Miniature probe with integrated return and selectable linearity

Thanks to its compact design and internal spring return, the push rod of the linear potentiometer reliably returns to its original position after deflection. The standard spring rate is 0.16 N/mm, with a 0.06 N/mm option available for particularly sensitive actuation. The required actuation force is less than 3 N and an analogue absolute signal is provided continuously, without the need for additional signal conditioning electronics. The small housing simplifies integration in limited spaces. The double-supported push rod and conductive plastic element, combined with good linearity, enable precise and repeatable probing and positioning over short strokes. The combination of an integrated spring, linearity down to 1% and a very compact size makes it especially effective for short measuring ranges with a defined return.
