Sensofoil® Membrane Potentiometer
Sensofoil® FR4-Magnet
Resistive track printed on circuit board – integrated ferromagnetic strip allows for contactless operation using a magnet, even through a thin enclosure
Magnetic potentiometers can also be manufactured on FR4 material. The integrated ferromagnetic material creates a magnetic pull, strong enough to work through an enclosure using the appropriate magnet. This technology allows for contactless and wear-free operation. Due to the circuit board, the Sensofoil® FR4-Magnet provides various mounting options besides the standard adhesive film.
How does it work?
The operating principle of the Sensofoil® PET-Magnet can also be applied to the Sensofoil® FR4-Magnet. The base membrane is replaced by a circuit board, providing further connecting and mounting options. The FR4 board can also be equipped based on customer requirements.
