Product Overview
The N-6 is a 6mm miniature carbon potentiometer designed for cost-effective control solutions in the Industrial, Automotive, and Appliance markets. It offers features comparable to traditional full-size potentiometers, including a wide electrical angle and a reduced form factor. The N-6 is RoHS & REACH compliant and available in SMD or through-hole mounting options. It is suitable for applications such as home and building automation, appliances, timer and control relays, power supplies, alarms, detectors, and light dimmers. An N6-R version with enhanced mechanical life is also available.
