N-6 6 mm Miniature Carbon Potentiometer
The N6 is a unique, fully RoHS & REACH ready miniature control potentiometer designed for industrial, automotive, and appliance markets. It offers the features of traditional full-size potentiometers in a compact and robust design. Key advantages include a wide electrical angle, reduced form factor, tape-on-reel packaging for automated high-speed placement, and overmolding technology. A RoHS reflow version (N6-R) with extended mechanical life is also available. Further options include improved linearity and custom shafts and knobs.
