A ROTARY POSITION SENSOR, USED AS A POTENTIOMETER. THE SENSOR HAS AN OPERATIONAL SPEED OF 120 RPM. THE MAXIMUM SUPPLY VOLTAGE ACROSS THE ELEMENT IS APPROXIMATELY 42 VDC. THE SENSOR IS USED ON MACHINERY WHERE ROTARY POSITION NEEDS TRANSLATING TO AN ELECTRICAL OUTPUT. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS ARE: THROTTLE POSITION SENSING AND GEARBOX GEAR SELECTION ON CARS. MAXIMUM CURRENT DRAW THROUGH THE WIPER IS LESS THAN 1 MICRO AMP, VOLTAGE IS APPLIED ACROSS THE ELEMENT; THE OUTPUT IS FED IN TO A HIGH IMPEDENCE METER AND AS THE SHAFT IS ROTATED THE CHANGING RESISTANCE GIVES AN OUTPUT VOLTAGE PROPORTIONAL TO THE SHAFT POSITION.
