Description
Description
The RTL series is a long-stroke linear potentiometer designed for precise
displacement measurement across strokes from 30 mm up to 1,000 mm.
Built with a rugged anodized aluminium housing and a stainless steel
(AISI 303) rod, the RTL is engineered for durability in demanding
industrial and hydraulic applications, offering infinite resolution and a
mechanical life of up to 100 million movements.
