Electronic foot potentiometer

Herga Technology has added a low cost all-electronic foot potentiometer that provides a variable voltage output proportional to the position of the pedal.

 

The robust 6210-VO has a solid state optical sensor for wear-free operation with long and reliable life of more than one million operations. The unit is designed for use on manually operated equipment with control input ratings from 4.5 to 12VDC at 10mA, enabling precise adjustment for functions such as motor speed or torque for lifting, mixing, dispensing, cutting and sealing – and all areas where a low cost means of providing manually controlled variable functions is required for maximum productivity.

The 6210-VO meets EN 60950 low voltage directive standards and has EN 60529 IPX2 protection rating.
