Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats – RHS15RE application field and working principle

The RHS15RE is a rotary potentiometer and rheostat, produced and supplied by HellermanTyton. This series is suitable for industrial, certified and automotive applications, and is designed to provide reliable and accurate feedback of the system\'s variable conditions. This article will cover the application fields of RHS15RE, as well as the working principle behind it.

Application Field

The RHS15RE is designed to provide durability, precision, and reliability for a variety of industrial applications and automotive requirements. It can be used for applications such as the control of power switches, motor control, adjustment of motors, automation adjustment, adjustment on pneumatic systems, and maintaining readings of mechanical monitoring systems.The RHS15RE is designed for operating temperature range from -50°C to 125°C with a maximum resistance range of 6 kilohms. It is also IP67-rated for dust and waterproof protection and has a durable plastic actuator cap with a metal cone nut for secure mounting of the unit.In addition, the RHS15RE is designed to provide high accuracy of more than 0.5% resolution. This ensures that readings remain consistent and precise, even through hundreds of thousands of cycles. The unit also offers 3 termination types, which makes it easy to install and versatile in various settings.

Working Principle

RHS15RE rotary potentiometer and rheostats use a variable resistor to provide an adjustable output. The resistor is made up of a coil of fine wire, known as the element, and a sliding contact called the wiper. The resistance between the element and the wiper can be changed by moving the wiper along the element.The output of the potentiometer is proportional to the position of the wiper. When the wiper is in the center position, the resistance between the element and the wiper is maximum, and when the wiper is at the end of the element, the resistance between the element and wiper is minimum. Thus, the output of the potentiometer is the result of the position of the wiper – the further the wiper is from the center, the greater the output.

Conclusion

The RHS15RE is an adaptive, dust and water resistant rotary potentiometer and rheostats, designed for reliable and accurate performance in a variety of industrial and automotive settings. It is engineered to provide precision and durability with a high accuracy resolution of 0.5%, and provides ease of installation with three termination types. RHS15RE\'s working principle is based on a variable resistor, where the output of the potentiometer is proportional to the position of the wiper.
