Product Overview
The Piher PS-10 and PSC-10 are 10-mm carbon/cermet SMD potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustment. Their shaftless design facilitates integration with various engagement mechanisms, including custom shafts, motor controls, or human interfaces. These potentiometers are suitable for controlling variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, and volume. Key features include IP54 protection, embossed tape packaging, and options for linear, logarithmic, and antilogarithmic tapers (PSC-10). They are available with up to 16 mechanical detents for tactile feedback and locating pins for accurate PCB positioning.
