Product Overview
The Piher PS-10 and PSC-10 are 10-mm carbon and cermet SMD potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustment. Their shaftless design allows for integration with various engagement mechanisms, including customized shafts, motor controls, or human interfaces. These potentiometers are suitable for controlling variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, or volume. They offer features like IP54 protection, embossed tape packaging, and options for linear, logarithmic, and antilogarithmic tapers (PSC-10). Available with up to 16 mechanical detents for tactile feedback and locating pins for accurate PCB positioning, they are ideal for appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and medical equipment control.
