DETENT CONFIGURATIONS EXAMPLES This innovative PTs with detents family has been specifically developed to allow the integration of otherwise large and expensive external mechanisms into the body of the potentiometer thus allowing a high range of configurations: special tapers, torque, tolerances, linearity, cut track, etc. This detent (stop position) design not only adds a "click" sensation of position, but also offers enormous savings in both cost and space for any given application. PAM P1I P1F P02 P03 P04 P05 P06 P07 P08 P09 P10 P11 P12 P13 Strong and weak detents can be mixed as per customers request. Detent number and positions can be made or fitted to the customer needs or preferences. Relative detent positions along the total mechanical travel.

The result is a higher level of precision in controlling lighting, temperature, motor or other electronic control systems. Constant value zones can be combined with strategically located stops matching the flat areas of the output. If you require this feature, please, send us your requirements to sales@piher.net A upon request DETENTS WITH CONSTANT VALUE ZONES Improved repeatability By combining the constant value zones with the detents, engineers can align the same voltage values with each of the detent stops when rotating the control both forward and backward. This provides clear mechanical positions that are not only repeatable, but perfectly aligned electrical outputs at each of the (detent) angles. Pihers detents also prevent output values from changing due to vibration or accidental rotor movements, furthering reliable control consistency. Design tip. Cost-effectiveness Main advantages Absolute encoders can easily be replaced connecting the potentiometer to the microprocessors analogue input.
