Angle (position) Sensor (0.. 240°)

The Angle position sensor contains a potentiometer with a pulley to attach a string to. By a displacement of a string, the potentiometer is rotated and the output voltage is adapted.

Technical specifications:

Measuring range: 270° ± 10° or 140 mm ± 5 mm
Resolution: 0.07° / 0.03 mm
Maximum sample frequency: 100 kHz (CoachLab II+, WiLab) / 1 MHz (VinciLab 2)
Warranty: 3 years
Includes sensor cable

Technical specifications of the sensor are described in the product manual, see downloads.

The Angle position sensor can be used in physics to:

Studying the swing of a pendulum
Measurements of small displacement
Measurement of positions of the light sensor in interference and diffraction patterns

The Angle position sensor can be directly connected to analog BT inputs of the CMA interfaces.
