Abstract

The variable capacitor (1) is characterized by the fact that the safety end switches (6, 7) as well as a displacement detector (10) are integrated in the housing (1) or in an additional housing (5) provided at one of the front ends of the capacitor housing (1). Due to this construction, the entire device becomes more compact and more precise in operation.
