Product Overview
The N-6 is a 6mm miniature carbon potentiometer designed for industrial, automotive, and appliance markets, offering a cost-effective control solution. It features a reduced form factor, tape-on-reel packaging for automated placement, and overmoulding technology for a compact and robust design. The N6 is RoHS & REACH compliant and available in SMD or through-hole mounting options. A ROHS reflow version (N6-R) with enhanced mechanical life is also offered. Further customization includes improved linearity and a selection of custom shafts and knobs.
