  • The combination of the well-known PT15/PTC15/PS15 control potentiometers with a Detent Control Mechanism (DCM) affords the appliance designer the possibility to solder the potentiometer onto the Control PCB assembly and then, in a second operation, assemble the DCM over it. This removes the need to build Detents into the User front panel of the appliance, simplifying, and significantly reducing the total cost of the solution.

    The detent torque can be modified according to Customer requirements (depending on the input dial’s diameter, etc) as can the number and position of the detents.

  • Thermometrics Evaporator Core Temperature Sensor measures evaporator core temperature in a vehicle's HVAC system so that it doesn’t freeze over, preventing a costly repair. The ultra fast response time aids in the HVAC system efficiency by enabling the evaporator core to operate closer to 0°C without the risk of a freeze over condition.
    More
  • Thermometrics Evaporator Temperature Sensor is used to measure evaporator core temperature. An evaporator cools the refrigerant in the HVAC system. Since the evaporator core operates at temperatures very close to 0°C, it is important to have an accurate and robust thermistor to measure its temperature to prevent the core from freezing. A frozen core could result in costly damage to the evaporator core and diminished HVAC operation, so that the cabin temperature can no longer be controlled.

    Strong and weak detents can be mixed as per cutomer´s request.


    - Replacement for:
    • Existing customer detent mechanisms.
    • Multi-pole switches.
    • 3 or 4-bit absolute encoders (connecting to microprocessor analogue input).
    - Analogue signal presets.
    - Temperature control settings.
    - Relay Timers.

    PT´s with detents also lend themselves perfectly to industrial and domestic power tool applications where the detents prevent accidental movement of the potentiometer under vibration.

    If high torque detents are required please see our Detent Control Mechanism (DCM) series datasheets. As previously highlighted, this family is indispensable wherever both cost and space saving reductions are important, or where a series of fixed positions along the potentiometer travel are required.
