Product Overview
The PTC-10 series is a 10 mm cermet potentiometer designed for precise control applications. Featuring a cermet resistive element and alumina substrate, it offers IP54 protection and is constructed with UL94V-0 rated non-flammable plastic materials. This potentiometer is suitable for various consumer applications including lighting control, power hand tools, relays, timers, and HVAC systems. It can be configured with optional features like SPDT switches, mechanical detents for precise positioning, and stepped output voltage zones, making it a cost-effective alternative to absolute encoders. Available in standard and long-life versions, it supports automatic insertion with magazine packaging.
