10mm spain potentiometer PT10, horizontal mount and vertical adjust

Description:

Carbon Potentiometer is an electronic component classified as variable resistor. Carbon Potentiometer is used as voltage divider to provide variable output voltage. Carbon Potentiometers uses carbon as resistive element. There are also different types of Potentiometers like Wire Wound type and ceramic type using different materials on resistive element. Carbon Potentiometer can be classified into logarithmic type and linear type depending on the mode of operations. Carbon Potentiometers are of many types and sizes depending on resistance value, power rating and type of mounting.

Panel mounted type Carbon Potentiometer are widely used for volume and tone control in consumer and entertainment electronics. PCB mount type is used as function controller, measuring and testing equipment, medical electronics, industrial electronics etc. Carbon Potentiometer is available with and without switches. There are also many varieties of spindles used for carbon potentiometer depending on the materials and sizes.

Carbon Potentiometer range includes double potentiometer at the same shaft, high voltage potentiometer, multi turn potentiometer, miniature potentiometer etc.

Carbon Potentiometers are used for volume control, tone control and other applications in Consumer Electronics, Entertainment Electronics, Industrial Electronics, Medical Electronics, Telecommunication etc.

Electrical specifications

Application:

The potentiometer can be worked as a voltage divider to obtain a manual adjustable output voltage at the slider from a fixed input voltage applied across the two ends of the potentiometer. It usually used in applications where a single turn provides enough control resolution.
