We offer wear-free, low-cost potentiometers that work exceptionally well anywhere precise and careful controls, inputs, or measurements are needed. If your application needs displacement and/or angle sensors, Hoffmann + Krippner, in exclusive partnership with German manufacturer Altmann GmbH, can provide high-quality potentiometer solutions. Furthermore, Hoffmann + Krippner’s ultra-thin, fully-sealed, and easily customized Sensofoil® membrane potentiometers can fit into restricted installation conditions and offer extremely long lifecycles. Similarly, Hoffmann + Krippner SensoInk® allow us to create polymer potentiometers that combine the advantages of PET (flexibility and cost) with high-strength polymer pastes that can surpass the lifecycles of other PET-based potentiometer products.

Trimmer Potentiometers
-
CTS trimmers are typically used in applications that do not need frequent adjustment and are often used for "set and forget" initial adjustments in circuits. These are usually located on the circuit board and out of view. CTS trimmers are available in a variety of standard resistance values, tolerances, power ratings, and mounting styles. Depending on product series, adjustment knobs are available with color coding and a screwdriver and/or hex hole for top or bottom side adjustments.

PXI-2722,16-Bit, 5-Channel PXI Programmable Resistor Module
781985-22
Programmable Resistor Module
16-Bit, 5-Channel PXI Programmable Resistor Module—The PXI‑2722 is a test module that replicates the behavior of resistance-based inputs and outputs such as potentiometers, resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), voltage dividers, and bridge elements. The PXI‑2722 programmatically controls a series of relays to vary the resistance across each channel of an I/O connector. This function is well suited for simulating environmental conditions in hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) validation. The software provides a simple user interface that accepts inputs in units of temperature or resistance and configures the resistance across each channel.
