Precision Turbine Control Potentiometers for Legacy Systems

Wirewound elements offer 500,000 to 10 million turn life expectancy with high power ratings up to 100 watts, making them ideal for high-load applications. Conductive plastic elements provide 20 to 50 million turn durability with essentially infinite resolution and low inductance, best suited for applications requiring smooth, noise-free positioning and extended lifespan.

AC motors operate on 115 VAC and are reversible, ideal for applications with readily available AC power. DC motors are available in 6, 12, or 24 VDC with multiple RPM options ranging from 1 to 120 RPM, providing flexibility for battery-powered systems, mobile equipment, or installations where DC power is standard.

Our motorized potentiometers are specifically designed for legacy system retrofits with repair and rebuilding services for older ETI Systems and other discontinued models. They feature slip clutch protection to prevent damage, manual adjustment capability when motors are off, gold plated terminals for reliable connections, and resistance ranges from 10 ohms to 100K ohms to match original specifications.

Dual gang potentiometers contain two separate potentiometer sections mechanically coupled together. One section provides control signals while the other delivers position feedback to your system, enabling closed-loop control and remote position monitoring essential for automated turbine control and process applications.

Yes, our potentiometers are built for demanding industrial conditions with high temperature thermoplastic housings, black anodized aluminum construction, rugged open-frame cage designs, and high impact housings. They are proven reliable in power generation plants, chemical processing facilities, and aerospace applications requiring long-term durability.

We provide a comprehensive 3-year warranty on parts and labor, plus unlimited phone support from experienced engineers. Our team offers expert repair and rebuilding services for legacy systems, ensuring you receive detailed technical assistance within 24 hours and ongoing support throughout the product lifecycle.

Resistance values from 10 ohms to 100K ohms are available across our product line. The correct value depends on your control circuit requirements, desired resolution, power handling needs, and compatibility with existing legacy equipment. Contact our engineering team with your system specifications to receive expert guidance on selecting the exact resistance value for your turbine control application.
