ATEK LTR100 Resistive Linear Potentiometer

Resistive Linear Potentiometer for Industrial Position Measurement

The ATEK LTR100 Resistive Linear Potentiometer provides linear position measurement using potentiometric sensing technology, featuring a push-back spring system, compact construction and multiple analogue output options.

Designed for industrial linear measurement applications, the LTR100 combines a small body structure with high sensitivity, high accuracy and long operating life. The product range supports measurement lengths from 10 mm to 150 mm, allowing users to select a suitable measuring length according to their equipment requirements.

The LTR100 operates using an absolute measurement principle, meaning that position information is not lost in the event of a power interruption, as described in the original product information.

Potentiometric Linear Position Measurement

The LTR100 uses potentiometric measurement technology to provide position information for compatible linear motion and displacement monitoring applications.

Its push-back spring mechanism forms part of the measuring arrangement, while the compact body structure allows the sensor to be considered for installations where available space is an important factor.

The original product information highlights high sensitivity and high accuracy, making the LTR100 suitable for evaluation in applications requiring responsive linear position measurement.

Absolute Position Measurement

The ATEK LTR100 provides absolute operation, retaining the relationship between physical position and measurement information when power is interrupted.

This characteristic is useful when selecting a position sensor for systems where position measurement needs to be available again after a power interruption, without relying on an incremental counting process.

Analogue Output and Connection Options

The LTR100 product range offers potentiometric, 4-20 mA and 0-10 V analogue output options, allowing users to select a suitable signal configuration for their measurement and control systems.

Connection options include a cable connection or a DIN 43650-C socket connection. The required output and connection configuration should be confirmed when selecting the sensor for a particular application.

Measurement Length and Operating Life

The LTR100 is available with measurement lengths ranging from 10 mm to 150 mm. The appropriate measurement length should be selected according to the travel distance and installation requirements of the equipment.

The original product information specifies a long operating life of up to 100 million movements, highlighting the sensor's durability for compatible linear measurement applications.
