Spectrum Sensors & Controls Process

The Process

Spectrum Sensors & Controls manufactures one type of potentiometer element - co-molded conductive plastic. In critical applications there is no justification to use less than the best. In the Spectrum Sensors & Controls process, the termination and resistance materials are simultaneously molded with the base substrate. The result...a flush circuit! The hard smooth surface combined with Spectrum Sensors & Controls' multi-finger precious metal contacts, promote ultra-long product life, and excellent electrical performance in all environments. The superiority of the Spectrum Sensors & Controls flush circuit over the raised circuit elements (i.e., conductive plastic film, screened conductive plastic, cerment, hybrid, and wirewound) is most evident in its long-term performance and reliability.
