Rotary Potentiometers

A rotary potentiometer is a type of linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) used to measure angular position or rotation. This type of device is used in applications such as robotic arms, robotic vision systems, angle sensors, and servo control. The rotary potentiometer consists of a wiper arm, which can be connected to the shaft of the device being measured, and a stationary element, which is attached to a resistor whose other end is connected to a voltage source. When the wiper arm is moved, it changes the resistance of the resistor, and this change is converted to a voltage which is proportional to the movement of the wiper arm.

Rheostats

Rheostats are components that are used to control the flow of electric current in a circuit. They are widely used in applications such as motor speed control, light dimming, and adjustable resistors. Rheostats consist of a resistive element, which is connected to a moveable contact. When the contact is moved, the resistance of the element changes, and this change is used to control the flow of current through the circuit. Rheostat resistance can also be adjusted to vary the voltage drop across the device. This type of device is used for power control and for applications where a precise control of current or voltage is required.

RKS500E Application Field and Working Principle

The RKS500E rotary potentiometer and rheostat are components used in certain types of applications. A rotary potentiometer is used in robotic arms, robotic vision systems, angle sensors, and servo control, while a rheostat is used to control the flow of electric current, for applications such as motor speed control, light dimming, and adjustable resistors.

The RKS500E consists of a resistive element that is connected to a fixed contact and a moveable contact. The fixed contact is connected to a voltage source, while the moveable contact is connected to the wiper arm of the device being measured. As the wiper arm is moved, it changes the resistance of the resistor, and this change is converted to a voltage which is proportional to the movement of the wiper arm accordingly. When the moveable contact is moved, it changes the resistance of the resistive element, and this change is used to control the flow of current through the circuit. The RKS500E can be used for applications in which precise control of current or voltage is required.
