Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats and the RNS400E application field and working principle are elements used in the world of electrical control to provide functioning support to various applications. In this article, we will discuss what the RNS400E is and its application field as well as the related working principle that makes it a functional attribute in electronic applications.

What is the RNS400E?

The RNS400E is an electronically operated rotary potentiometer. It is a four-wire system that operates with a voltage rating of up to 400V. This type of potentiometer is encoded (magnetically or optically) on the rotor and can provide accurate readings over continuous rotation. It can also provide a variety of feedback functions such as linearization, constant speed and pulse measurements, as well as position control.

Channels which are electromechanically coupled in a similar manner as rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats are used by the RNS400E. The channels consist of four wires and contain an on-off switch to signal the start of a measurement cycle. The device does not require calibration or forward voltage drops in order to provide a consistent, repeatable signal. This makes it ideal for use in applications ranging from measuring performance of motion controls to monitoring power flow in electric vehicles.

RNS400E Application Field

The RNS400E is especially useful in applications that require the addition or replacement of an existing rotary potentiometer. It can also be used instead of a rheostat to provide a higher voltage in the circuit. Further applications include application of: motor powers, precision current sensors, position controllers, motor timing control, and parameterizable width and direction control.

RNS400E Working Principle

The basic working principle of the RNS400E is simple and straightforward. An electric current is applied to a set of nodes which are electromechanically coupled. The current passes through the element and the amount of current passing through each node/contact point is monitored. The monitored current will indicate the angle of rotation and the amount of rotation the potentiometer has gone through. This data can then be used to provide various feedback functions as required by the application.

Additionally, the RNS400E features a self-contained potentiometer system which means it does not require manual calibration as other potention produces do. This is important when used in applications where accuracy and repeatability are essential such as motor control or motion control. The accuracy and repeatability of the device can be enhanced further by the feature of Temperature Compensation provided by the RNS400E.

Conclusion

The RNS400E is an electronically operated rotary potentiometer that is ideal for applications requiring addition or replacement of an existing rotary potentiometer and as a high-voltage alternative to a rheostat. Its four-wire system and temperature compensation can provide an accurate and repeatable signal for a variety of feedback functions and applications such as motor powers, precision current sensors, position controllers, motor timing control, and parameterizable width and direction control.
