Product Overview
The Piher PS-10 and PSC-10 are 10-mm carbon and cermet SMD potentiometers designed for applications requiring frequent adjustment. Their shaftless design allows for versatile engagement mechanisms, including customized shafts, motor controls, or human interface adjustments. These potentiometers are capable of controlling variable outputs such as frequency, motor speed, and volume. Key features include IP54 protection, up to 10,000 life cycles, and availability in linear, logarithmic, and antilogarithmic tapers (PSC-10). They are suitable for a wide range of applications including appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and medical equipment control.
