Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats are electronic components, based on the output of a voltage or current that is related to the magnitude of input angular or linear motion, that change according to the movement of the object being sensed. The type of device used will depend upon the specific requirements of the application. The P230-2EC20AR50K is a rotary potentiometer/ rheostat device, suitable for use in a variety of applications including as position sensors, angle position sensors, speed sensors, velocity sensors, force sensors, and temperature sensors.

The P230-2EC20AR50K is a device that is capable of translating small angular or linear movements into a specific electrical output. It is designed to measure angular or linear motion over a range of angles or lengths, using electrical signals (voltage/current) to provide an output accordingly. This device works on the principle of using a pair of contact wipers which move relative to a resistive track when the knob of the potentiometer is rotated or the rod is pushed or pulled. Each wiper is connected with one of two terminals at one end of the device, whereas the other terminal is connected to the middle wiper. When one of the wipers is then moved, it will be in line with a specific resistance point and so the voltage/current output is determined based on the position of the wiper.

The P230-2EC20AR50K has an operating voltage of 0.5-8VDC and is able to handle a maximum current/voltage of 0.7A/20V. Its resistance range is adjustable from 0-50k Ohms, with a linearity tolerance of 5%. This potentiometer/ rheostat device is a 2-wire device of the mechanical type, with minimal hysteresis and an excellent linearity. Furthermore, it is a highly reliable device, thanks to its gold plated terminals, and has an adjustable shaft length of 10-60mm. This makes it suitable for use in a range of different applications including, but not limited to, DIY projects, medical equipment and robotics. It is particularly well suited for applications requiring high performance and reliable operation, such as when a response time of less than 1 millisecond is desired.

Apart from its electrical properties, the P230-2EC20AR50K also has a range of advantageous features designed to make it easier to use and integrate into an application. These features include a newly designed shaft for mounting, for aiding installation in confined spaces, as well as easy adjustment and maintenance. Its installation can be further simplified through optional custom screws and offset nuts for adjusting the position and length of the shaft. Furthermore, the robust metal housing of the device enhances its durability and accuracy of readings even in applications with high vibration. The overall dimensions of this device are 2.5” (L) x 2” (H) x 0.88” (W), making it a low profile, easy to mount and use device.

Overall, the P230-2EC20AR50K is a versatile, high-performance rotary potentiometer, rheostat device that is suitable for use in a range of applications where a reliable response is needed. Its range of features make it convenient and easy to integrate into different projects. Whether it be for the measurement of position, angle, speed, velocity, force or temperature, the P230-2EC20AR50K offers a reliable and high performing solution.
