Durable through hole potentiometer Amphenol PT10LH01-224A2020 with carbon cermet resistive element
Product Overview
The Piher PT-10 and PTC-10 are 10-mm through-hole potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustments. These carbon and cermet potentiometers offer versatile control for variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, or volume. Their shaftless design allows for various engagement mechanisms, including customized shafts, motor controls, or human interface adjustments. Key features include excellent linearity (up to 3%), a choice of carbon or cermet resistive elements, up to 16 mechanical detents for tactile feedback, and an extended life of up to 100,000 cycles. They are suitable for a wide range of applications including appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
