Spectra Symbol MagnetoPot Potentiometers
Spectra Symbol MagnetoPot Potentiometers are contactless linear position sensors that track motion and liquid-level measurement. These potentiometers offer full linear travel as a magnetic sensor and provide control input or sensing solutions for a fraction of the competing magnetic sensor cost. The MagnetoPot potentiometers feature a ±20% resistance tolerance, >1 million life cycle, 0.50Watt continuous, up to 85°C, and 1Watt peak power rating. These sensors are ideal for hydraulic and pneumatic position sensing and are available in IP64 rating.
