Overview

The sensing element of this device is a precision plastic-hybrid potentiometer which provides superb linearity and resolution. The RT8101 provides extended rotational position feedback from as little as 1/8 of a turn f.s. all the way up to 200 turns f.s. Because the sensor is potentiometric, the RT8101 is absolute and will maintain position information even after a loss of power.

BENEFITS

  • Industrial Grade Rotational Position Sensor 
  • Absolute Rotary Position up to 200 turns 
  • Aluminum or Stainless Steel Enclosure Options
