Rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats are common applications for the RLS100 sensor. This type of sensor provides precise measurements of linear motion and angular position, as well as a wide range of signal output types, which make these types of sensors ideal for a variety of applications.

A rotary potentiometer is a resistor device with a variable output, typically used to measure the angular position or the magnitude of a mechanical quantity such as torque or speed. It features one or more rotary contact points which rotate as the output measurement is taken. The contact point’s output is proportional to the angular position of the contact point and is acquired by the RLS100 sensor, which then measures and reports it. A rotary potentiometer is commonly used in automotive applications such as throttle positioning systems.

A rheostat is essentially a variable resistor and is commonly used as an adjustable current or voltage limiting device. It has a rotating contact which can be adjusted to modify its output resistance, allowing fine control of current or voltage. The RLS100 sensor measures the rotation of the contact and then reports it to the system. Rheostats are found in a wide range of applications, typically applications where current needs to be adjusted or controlled.

The RLS100’s key feature, its ability to accurately measure angular position, is essential to the functionality of both rotary potentiometers and rheostats. By measuring the rotation of the contact point of these devices, it can accurately report the changes in current or voltage, allowing the system to accurately adjust to the changing needs of the application.

The working principle of the RLS100 sensor is relatively simple and straightforward. A mechanical element is used to detect motion and the sensor measures the motion with accuracy and precision. High-sensitivity optical detector strips are installed within the sensor to provide reliable measurements. The measured data is then collected and processed by the sensor’s internal circuitry and is then output to the system for further processing.

The RLS100 sensor is suitable for a wide range of applications, including the measurement of both rotary potentiometers and rheostats. The sensor boasts both high accuracy and precision, enabling it to measure subtle changes in motion or rotation with accuracy and reliability. This makes it the ideal choice for applications where precise measurements are necessary.
