Variable control

Switching and sensing solutions expert, Herga Technology, has added a new low cost all-electronic foot potentiometer that provides a variable voltage output proportional to the position of the pedal.

Aimed at applications across medical equipment, domestic appliance, office and industrial machinery, the robust 6210-VO features a solid state optical sensor for wear free operation with extremely 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 12 VDC at 10 mA, enabling precise adjustment for functions such as motor speed or torque for lifting, mixing, dispensing, cutting and sealing.
