Linear displacement sensor LS01

resistancepotentiometerwith potentiometric output

Presentation
Miniature analog linear sensor LS01. Potentiometric technology (resistance variation) to measure rod position and provide an analog signal proportional to the travel. Designed for short-stroke measurement and easy integration into compact industrial systems.

Summary

• Available measurement ranges: 0 to 10 … 0 to 25 mm
• Linearity: ±0.5% of F.S.
• Repeatability: <0.01 mm
• Resolution: infinite
• Mechanical life: up to 50 million cycles

Applications and integration
Used for short-stroke measurement where compactness is critical (special machines, test benches, etc.). Simple electrical integration (3-wire). Can be paired with amplification electronics, data acquisition units or software. Sealing and robustness suited to industrial conditions; calibration available as an option.
