640 Series Thru-Shaft Potentiometers
Potentiometers convert rotary motion into a change of resistance, supplying a smooth transition of voltage or current
levels. The resulting voltage output may be used to control position transducers in a wide variety of potential applications.
The 640 Series Thru-Shaft Potentiometers are actuated by a customer-provided actuator shaft instead of by a shaft/
bushing integral to the sensor. The low-profile housing allows use where space is at a premium.
All versions are sealed for dust. Splash-sealed or moisture-sealed options feature O-ring seals between the rotor and
housing and cover; and epoxy sealing between the leadwires, the housing and the cover.
The 640 Series are available in resistances from 1 kOhm to 1 MOhm, inclusive. Tapers include linear and a 360° quadrature
voltage to meet a wide range of application requirements.
A dual-contact version allows for two mechanically-tracking electrical actions, or true 360° quadrature voltage output.
Key Features and Benefits
• Thru-shaft configuration actuated by customer-
provided actuator shaft: Allows use in space-constrained
applications where there may not be enough room for a
shaft/bushing integral to the sensor
• Reinforced, low-profile housing: Allows use in rugged
environments where space constraints may be present
• Dust sealed with splash- or moisture-sealed options:
Designed to provide protection against dust or moisture
ingress
• Long rotational life of greater than one million cycles:
Promotes extended life in the application
Potential Applications
