Product Overview
The PT-15 and PTC-15 are 15-mm through-hole potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustments. Featuring a shaftless design, they offer versatility for various engagement mechanisms, including customized shafts, motor controls, and human interface adjustments. These potentiometers are suitable for controlling variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, and volume. They are available with carbon (PT-15) or cermet (PTC-15) resistive elements and offer up to 38 mechanical detents for tactile feedback, with a lifespan of up to 100,000 cycles. The series boasts IP54 protection and is available in magazine packaging for automatic insertion. Key applications include appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
