potentiometer Amphenol PT15LH06-202A2020-S with polyester alumina substrate and shaftless design benefits
Product Overview
The Piher PT-15 and PTC-15 are 15-mm through-hole potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustment. Featuring a shaftless design, they offer flexibility for various engagement mechanisms like customized shafts, motor controls, or human interface adjustments. These potentiometers are suitable for controlling variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, or volume. They offer excellent performance with up to 3% linearity, a choice of carbon or cermet resistive elements, and up to 100,000 life cycles. With IP54 protection and options for magazine packaging for automatic insertion, the PT-15 and PTC-15 are ideal for a wide range of industrial and consumer electronics applications.
