BEI Systron Donner Inertial Division introduces the MotionPak II, a low cost, multi-axis, solid state, MEMS based, inertial sensor system that is accurate, rugged and highly reliable.
The exceptional characteristics of this material enable the potentiometer to withstanding over 1 million full rotation cycles.
The 5320 is compact and can be integrated into tight spaces where the available depth behind the panel is limited.
It can be supplied with numerous standard and custom options including detents, various electrical and mechanical angles, different length shafts, bushing diameters and resistance values.
The high quality, rugged design features a stainless steel shaft, nickel plated brass bushing and gold plated terminals for direct soldering.
It is suitable for a wide range of applications including feedback control of hydraulic manipulators, panel lighting, actuator control etc.
The 5320 series, high accuracy sensor offers all the advantages of a cost effective traditional potentiometer in a rugged low-profile package that is designed to survive the harshest conditions.
