PT-15 / PTC-15 15-mm Carbon / Cermet Through-Hole Potentiometer
Product Overview
The PT-15 and PTC-15 are 15-mm through-hole potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustment. Their shaftless design allows for versatile integration with various engagement mechanisms, including customized shafts, motor controls, or human interface adjustments. These potentiometers are ideal for controlling variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, or volume. They offer excellent performance with up to 3% linearity, a choice of carbon or cermet resistive elements, and up to 38 mechanical detents for tactile feedback. With up to 100,000 life cycles and IP54 protection, they are suitable for demanding environments. Available in magazine packaging for automatic insertion, these potentiometers are used in appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
