PT10 10mm Horizontal Adjust Through Hole Carbon Film Variable Resistor Potentiometer
Quick Detail
Description
- The PT10 Carbon Film Potentiometer is a compact 10mm single-turn trimmer designed for precise and reliable performance in a wide range of electronic applications. Built with a carbon resistive element and rated at 0.15W, it offers a resistance range from 100Ω to 5MΩ, with ±20% tolerance and a temperature coefficient of ±300ppm/°C. Engineered for durability, it ensures up to 100,000 life cycles, making it suitable for long-term use. Featuring horizontal adjustment with vertical mounting and a hexagonal adjust slot, the PT10 provides ease of integration.
- Its shaft-less design delivers exceptional flexibility, enabling seamless adaptation to various HMI mechanisms. Ideal for controlling frequency, motor speed, volume, and other variable outputs, this potentiometer is widely used in audio equipment, consumer electronics, instrumentation, and industrial devices.
