3. Can Precision make potentiometers to customer
specifications?
Precision
maintains extensive in-house design and manufacturing capabilities.
We are able to accommodate most customer requirements.
4. What is the difference between mechanical
and electrical rotation?
Mechanical
rotation is the number of degrees between end stops. Electrical
rotation is the mechanical rotation minus the length of the
terminal pads.
5. How is life expectancy quantified?
Life
expectancy can be expressed either as the number of rotations
to failure or as the number of operating hours to failure.
These quantities can vary greatly from one application to
another.
6. What are the major factors affecting life
expectancy?
Life
expectancy is affected by operating temperature, humidity,
environmental contaminants, vibration, shaft side torque and
operating conditions in excess of specifications.
