Because of its exceptional cost-benefit ratio, the Siko GP44 Geared Potentiometer is becoming more and more significant in analogue measuring applications that demand high-quality industrial measurement results today. A The construction and operation of geared potentiometers, There are two primary parts to a geared potentiometer. One has precision gear wheels and is a measuring device. The other is an electric resistor element that may be turned to change its resistance value. With the least amount of backlash, the potentiometer and gear unit are constructed at the works. Multi-coil potentiometers use an inbuilt slip clutch to keep the mechanical stops from overrunning. As a result, an ohmic output signal proportional to the number of spins is produced by a geared potentiometer.

Features

  • Extremely resistant to external influences
  • Solid or blind-hole hollow shaft, max. Ø 20 mm
  • Adaptation to various measurement distances owing to a wide range of gear ratios
  • Integrated slip clutch to protect the potentiometer
  • Potentiometer or power output
  • IP65 protection class
  • Up to 3 cam-operated switch outputs, freely adjustable

Applications

Multi-coil hybrid potentiometers are particularly suitable for applications with long service life and low signal noise, for example as a position sensor in position control loops of dancer potentiometers for paper processing, textile machines, slewing systems, and lifting gear of crane and excavator systems or actuators in power plants and chemical plants. The geared potentiometers equipped with wire or plastic resistor elements supply current or voltage signals of 4 – 20mA as well as 0 – 10V with optional, integrated analog R/I or R/U transducers. All transducers feature trimmers with which the output signal of the respective angle deflection of the transmitter can be adjusted. Oil-filled potentiometers of protection category IP65 or IP68 are available for measuring points in extremely soiled or wet environments.
