The Force Sensing Potentiometer, part number 51AC1048, is designed for applications requiring a load capacity of up to 1 kg. It operates effectively within a temperature range of -20¬8C to +60¬8C. The device features a linear resistance characteristic, with typical values of 1.25 kOc for the FSP01CE variant and 0.76 kOc for the FSP02CE variant, both with a tolerance of ¬±15%. The actuation force required to reach a resistance of 10 MOc is less than 20 grams, making it suitable for sensitive applications. The product exhibits low long-term drift, with less than 2% change in resistance after 48 hours under a 1 kg load. It also demonstrates good repeatability, with a standard deviation of 5% for single part repeatability and ¬±10% for part-to-part repeatability. The device is RoHS compliant and has been tested for durability, showing a 4% average change in resistance after 10 million actuations at 1 kg force. It is suitable for various environments, having been tested for high and low temperature storage as well as high humidity conditions. This product is ideal for engineers looking for a reliable force sensing solution in their projects.
