Technical Frequently Asked Questions
What can be connected to the PTP potentiometric transducer?
Fixing clamps can be attached to it: 4 Z1-11 clamps with 4 M3x8 screws (VE50) Z-PTP-B01.
How do I order the PTP potentiometric transducer?
The order code has six fields: range (mm), profile, cursor, other, electrical, and connection. For example, PTP-0150-311-002-001 is the version with a defined electrical range of 150 mm, a short aluminum profile with an element protrusion on one side, an unmodified cursor, a standard design, independent linearity from ±0.05 % to ±0.25 %, and Cu/Ni/Au solder tracks on FR4. All the options for each field are available in the order code configurator on this page.
Under what conditions does the PTP potentiometric transducer operate?
Operating temperature: -40 … +100 °C.
