cermet potentiometer 10mm size Amphenol PTC10LH01-253A2020 with IP54 protection and plastic housing
Product Overview
The PTC-10 series is a 10mm cermet potentiometer designed for precision control applications. Featuring a cermet resistive element and an alumina substrate, these potentiometers offer IP54 protection and are constructed with non-flammable plastic materials (UL94V-0). They are suitable for integration into automated assembly processes, being available in magazines for automatic insertion. The PTC-10 series is ideal for consumer electronics, power hand tools, relays, timers, and HVAC systems, offering precise control for lighting, temperature, and motor applications. Optional features include low torque versions, SPDT switches, laser trimming for tighter tolerances, and custom wiper positioning.
