About the M150 String Pot

The M150 is smaller than a thumbprint and occupies a tiny space of only 0.74 x0 .74 x 0.38 inches.

With a full stroke measurement range of 1.5 inches, the M150 has been designed for many aerospace and automotive space-critical test applications such as throttle position and crash-test instrumentation. The heart of the M150 is a precision high-cycle conductive plastic potentiometer that delivers a high-linearity voltage position feedback signal. With its rugged all aluminum construction, the M150 has been engineered for reliability and to provide quick, easy and hassle-free installation.

Applications for M150

  • For test and space-critical applications
