Product Overview
The Piher PS-6 is a 6-mm carbon SMD trimmer potentiometer designed for a wide range of electronic applications, including appliance program selection, thermostat adjustment, timer and control relays, consumer electronics, power tool controls, and test and measurement equipment. It offers excellent performance with a carbon resistive element and is suitable for lead-free reflow soldering processes. Key features include up to 10 mechanical detents for haptic feedback, 1,000 life cycles, IP54 protection, and embossed tape packaging. The self-extinguishable plastic construction (UL 94V-0) and Pb-free compliance ensure safety and environmental responsibility.
