Product description: Oil filled linear potentiometer WGO40
Wirewound technology with oil filling — stable operation under challenging conditions
In this linear potentiometer, displacement is measured using a wire-wound resistive element. Its hermetically sealed, oil-filled design provides reliable protection against environmental influences, ensuring a stable output signal throughout its service life. The sensor can handle a power rating of up to 3 W (depending on the stroke). For precise measurement tasks, operation as a potential divider is recommended to minimize wiper current and ensure repeatability of the signal.
