Overview
The PT8510 series string pot can operate from an unregulated 14.5 to 40 VDC power supply while providing an output signal that is proportional to the linear movement of its measuring cable.
The PT8510 string pot has a maximum measurement range up to 60” and has 4 output signal options to choose from: 0...10, 0...5, -10...+10 and -5...+5 VDC. As a member of our innovative family of NEMA-4 rated cable-extension transducers, the PT8510 offers numerous benefits. It installs in minutes, fits into areas unsuited for rod-type measurement devices, and works without perfectly parallel alignment.
