Today potentiometric Angular Position Transmitters attain a still more status with regard to the analogue measuring technique as far as high-quality measurement tasks are concerned due to the favourable value for money. Potentiometric transmitters have either a high-resolution element of conductive plastic or a high-resolution gold or constantan wire with various resistance and angle values. They are available in various sizes as single-turn or multiple-turn potentiometers or in a multiple design. For adjustment of the measuring range almost all series can be provided with short-circuiting tracks, taps and function windings. Some models are available with incorporated Signal Converter providing current or voltage outputs in configuration of 2, 3 or 4 wires. To ensure reliability in very dirty atmospheres, oil-filled potentiometers are available.

When, some 60 years ago conductive plastic potentiometers were first introduced onto the market, it was apparent that although the winding jumps which were a feature of wire-wound potentiometers had been overcome, absolute smoothness of the output voltage could not be achieved. Following some basic reserach by. h. Wormser 4, 5, 6 , the term "smoothness" was included in the standard issued by the Variable Resistive Compontents Institute (VRCI). Although this definition was adequate at that time it cannot serve as a system definition for many applications. This is because it is now possible to produce potentiometers with appreciably better smoothness and linearity values. For this reason, Novotechnik has sought over the past years to develop definitions better suited to the current state fo the art. The various methods used are discussed and evalutated below.

Displacement sensors models 8710 and 8711 with resistance tracks made of conductive plastic material are designed for a direct and accurate measuring of mechanical displacements. A special ball joint coupling is mountable on both ends of the driving rod. Because of this the sensor may be used free of clearance or lateral forces also with angular or parallel misalignment between sensor and measuring device. A special multi-fingered slider provides a good electrical contact also at high adjustment speeds or vibrations. Areas of application are: —Electromagnets —Switch and button deflections —Pneumatic cylinders —Press-fits (longitudinal press-fits) —Hydraulic cylinders —Measurements of deformation and bending —Length tolerances —Feeding paths Due to the technology employed in potentiometric displacement sensors, they always operate with a sliding contact system.

Thanks to their small size – 21 mm square section case – the linear potentiometers seris PT2S can be profitably employed for those applications where limited dimensions are a critical factor. Two ball joints are provided at both ends for air fixing. The series strokes range from 25 to 150 mm. The electrical connection is granted by means of M12 connector. The stout extrused aluminium case grants a high protection degree against environmental agents.
