Advantages of Linear Potentiometers
Linear Potentiometers are a highly cost-effective solution if you are looking for a low cost, general purpose linear position measurement, or monitoring solution.
For example, they are ideal for monitoring the position of conveyor guides.
ADM prefers Midori linear potentiometers, because of their high reliability.
However, it should be noted that linear potentiometers are not suitable for applications where there are rapid and repetitive strokes. For this type of application, we recommend an LVDT transducer instead, which we also stock:
Why Midori Linear Potentiometers
Midori Green Pot linear potentiometers have dual conductive plastic tracks. These are far superior to carbon resistive tracks, which can be found on some other devices and work well with DC excitation voltages.
The Green Pot linear potentiometers are extremely reliable, typically being rated at around 1 million cycles. This makes them perfect for many industrial automation applications.
In fact, we have recently had a customer install Midori linear potentiometers on a conveyor line to monitor the position of the conveyor guides.
Should there be dust present in the application environment, then you can opt for an IP65 model, which is resistant to dust ingress.
