Product Overview
The PT-6 is a 6-mm carbon through-hole trimmer potentiometer designed for precise adjustments in electronic circuits. It offers excellent performance with a carbon resistive element and is available with up to 10 mechanical detents for haptic feedback and optional stop positions. The potentiometer is lead-free and IP54 protected, making it suitable for demanding applications. It is compatible with magazines for automatic insertion and offers various tapers, life cycles, and switch functions on request. Key applications include appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
