Product Overview
The Piher PS-6 is a 6-mm carbon SMD trimmer potentiometer designed to enable the electronics revolution across various applications. It offers excellent performance with a carbon resistive element and features optional stop positions for haptic feedback, making it the only 6mm miniature trimmer potentiometer with this capability. The PS-6 is designed for lead-free reflow soldering processes and boasts up to 10 mechanical detents, 1,000 life cycles, and IP54 protection. Its self-extinguishable plastic construction (UL 94V-0) and Pb-free compliance ensure safety and environmental responsibility. Ideal for appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment.
