Sine-cosine potentiometer for precise motion control and reliable applications

The SCX50 is a high-performance conductive plastic potentiometer developed for applications with the highest demands on accuracy, robustness and durability. It combines sine and cosine output signals for precise angle measurements and the calculation of mathematical functions such as coordinate transformations, vector calculations and the conversion of movements into x-y coordinate systems.

With a lifetime of over 50 million revolutions, a load capacity of up to 1.25 W and a linearity of ±0.5%, the SCX50 is the ideal choice for demanding applications. Its robust 50.8 mm metal housing and gold-plated radial connections guarantee reliable operation even under difficult conditions.

• Sine and cosine output signals for precise trigonometric calculations and conversions to coordinate systems
• Angle measurement per full rotation, after 360° precise measurement again over 36

Options:

• Tandem version: For redundant signal output, up to 3 gears
• Rear shaft: For mechanical connections to synchronised mechanisms
• Resistance values: 1 kOhm to 100 kOhm
• Linearity: ±0.5% (option: ±0.3% or ±0.2%)
• Resistance tolerance: ±15% (option: ±10%)
• Screwdriver slot: For manual adjustment
