Our Standard-Width Linear HotPot Sensors. (currently Thinner variants of our HotPot series are only available as custom orders, contact us for more information on non-stock variants)
For the 750mm, or 1000mm stock variants, please see the "extra long" lengths product listing. Rotary variants of the HotPot are also listed separately.
HotPots are extremely popular in more extreme temperatures, whether very cold or hot.
Input use examples:
- Sliding Level-Setting Controls
- Custom sound-board input
- Any input where linear scale or movement is the ideal method of control!
Output use examples:
- Sliding doors or windows (industrial or residential when more than simple open/closed status is desired)
- Tracking articulating manufacturing rail position
- Plunger positioning for precise fluid injector tracking (medical & industrial fluids)
- Many tracking needs related to objects or actuators that slide, extend, retract, raise, lower & more!

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Our membrane potentiometers & flex sensors are significantly pliable, but we recommend that bending & flexing is kept to a minimum to preserve maximum fidelity & accuracy, especially in hot or cold conditions, and especially if not a Hotpot. Even with flex sensors, you want to avoid folding or kinking before applied to the project, and bending ends away from printed/striped side is recommended. (concave side should be logo-side) MagnetoPots should not be bent, twisted, or flexed at all.
Product Images Are Meant as a Series Representation Only
Our product images often do not represent the length you have selected and instead show a default sensor image for that series. Please refer to the "Active Sensor Length" selector to verify that the sensor length chosen is what you want. Also verify that the desired connector and linearity (margin of accuracy) are selected before purchase.
For full product specifications and measurements please see DataSheets below product description above.
Thank you!
