IP-6501-A502

Industrial rotary potentiometer of 5 kΩ with continuous 360° rotation and IP65 protection.

The industrial rotary potentiometer Novotechnik IP6501-A502 It is a high-precision absolute angle sensor designed for position measurement and motion control in demanding industrial applications. Thanks to its conductive plastic potentiometric technology, it provides a stable analog signal, high measurement accuracy, and excellent long-term reliability in automation systems, drives, control valves, test benches, and industrial machinery.

Its robust construction incorporates an anodized aluminum housing, stainless steel shaft, and stainless steel ball bearings. The shaft sealing system and industrial connector provide a high degree of protection. IP65, ensuring reliable operation in environments with dust, humidity, vibrations and dirt.

The conductive plastic resistor technology provides a typical lifespan of up to 100 million movements, an angular repeatability of 0,007° and an independent linearity of up to ±0.075 %. The sensor features a continuous mechanical rotation of 360° and an effective electrical path of 355° ±2°, Offering virtually infinite resolution and precise, stable angular measurement, even in demanding positioning applications. The maximum operating speed reaches 2000 rpm within the limits specified by the manufacturer.

The IP6501-A502 model incorporates a 5-pin industrial connector connection and can be combined with process indicators, signal conditioners, and data acquisition systems for integration into industrial control and automation applications.

The IP6501-A502 industrial rotary potentiometer is an ideal solution for:

  • Industrial automation
  • Angular positioning systems
  • Motorized valves and actuators
  • Test benches and testing equipment
  • Manufacturing and assembly machinery
  • Industrial Instrumentation and Metrology
  • Motion control systems
  • Equipment subjected to vibrations and severe industrial environments
