Product Overview
The PT-6 is a 6-mm carbon through-hole trimmer potentiometer designed for precision adjustment in electronic applications. It features a carbon resistive element, up to 10 mechanical detents for haptic feedback, and a life cycle of up to 10,000 cycles. The potentiometer offers IP54 protection and is available in magazines for automatic insertion. It supports various tapers, including linear, logarithmic, and antilogarithmic, and can be supplied with loose or assembled shafts and knobs. Applications include appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
