Potentiometers
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.

Life Cycle & Fatigue Testers
Switches can use all these operations. Membrane switches, keyboards and keypads will all require a push with a known force. On/Off switches will combine a push and a pull or possibly push on, push off. A rocker switch and toggle switches will require a push in two different places. Rotary switches (and volume controls, potentiometers) need to be rotated clockwise and counter clockwise The standard life cycle and fatigue tester the B886 Simon System has been designed for life cycle and fatigue testing of switches, membrane switches, keyboards and keypads. It contains all the components needed to life and fatigue test a products that need to be pushed. We can also supply different actuators for a push, pull, rocker, toggle, volume control or rotary switch.

High Elongation Extensometers
Model 3800
Jinan Testing Equipment IE Corporation
The main body of this unique extensometer remains stationary during testing, held in position by the adjustable magnetic base included. Only the very light, small traveling heads move as the sample elongates during a test. These attach to the sample with small spring clips. Each head pulls a cord out from the extensometer as the head moves. These models use high precision, low friction potentiometers, and, as a result, have a wide range of factory selectable outputs. The extensometer is driven by an excitation voltage and has output proportional to the input. They can be provided with high level outputs (approximately 2-8 VDC) or ones that mimic strain gaged devices (2-4 mV/V). When set to mimic strain gaged extensometers, the Model 3800 can be used with virtually any signal conditioning electronics designed for strain gaged sensors. The potentiometers employ a hybrid wire wound around conductive plastic, which provides excellent long term stability. The output from the extensometer is readily interfaced with most existing test controllers, and may be directly input to data acquisition systems and chart recorders. Please let us know at the time of order what type of output and connector you require.
