Customizable stringpot

The slim and compact SG1 stringpot comes with a 10K-Ω potentiometer that provides a voltage divider output signal proportional to the position of the spring-loaded measuring cable

The slim and compact SG1 stringpot comes with a 10K-Ω potentiometer that provides a voltage divider output signal proportional to the position of the spring-loaded measuring cable. It has a stroke range of 80 in. (a 120-in. version is coming), and operates at 0 to 160°F.

The SG1, constructed with a rugged polycarbonate body, a high-cycle plastic hybrid potentiometer, and a durable spring-loaded stainless-steel measuring cable, has been designed for tight spaces, complete with a generous measuring cable misalignment and free release tolerance.

Electrical connection options include the M12 connector, a 40-in. pigtail, or solder terminals directly on the SG1 pot. To withstand wet IP67 environments, the M12 connector and pigtail options provide an O-ring-sealed cover. Additionally, the M12 connector option comes with a field-installable mating plug and a 13-ft cordset is available.
