Rotary potentiometers and rheostats are two common application fields for 450D102KSD6. This component is a single turn potentiometer with drilled type configurations and capacitive power of 100 mW. In order for one to understand the mechanism of this component, knowledge of its way of operation is necessary.

Rotary potentiometers or “pots” use wiper movement to allow the user to manually vary the resistance of the circuit. This is accomplished by pressing down the ring on the component and then turning it. This movement in the wiper changes the resistance in the circuit and consequently alters the voltage that passes through the circuit.

Rotary potentiometers are available in linear or logarithmic versions. The logarithmic version has a distinct feature, which is that it reacts so that a specific angle change of the dial produces approximately the same change in output voltage, no matter where the starting point is. Logarithmic potentiometers are usually used as volume or bass/treble controls in audio applications.

Rheostats are similar to potentiometers but serve slightly different purposes. They use two terminals in order to vary the resistance in a circuit. Rheostats are generally used with low currents because they are designed to manage heavier loads than potentiometers. Whereas the design of potentiometers helps the user control the resistance in a small circuit, rheostats are used in place of manual switches to vary the current or voltage in heavy-duty motor control applications.

The 450D102KSD6 has the added feature of tapped axial configurations, which makes it a suitable component for both rheostats and potentiometers. The operation of tapped axial 450D102KSD6 is as follows. Both fixed and movable terminals are available in this type of component, which is a single turn, radial mount variable resistor. A user can adjust the variable resistance by connecting the terminals to adjust the resistance as desired.

The 450D102KSD6 is also a shock and vibration resistant component, making it suitable for even the rough applications. The wattage rating makes it suitable for industrial applications where the environmental factors, such as humidity, can be found. This component is further protected by an encapsulation, making it resistant to oil and water.

In conclusion, the 450D102KSD6 component is suitable for use in rotary potentiometers and rheostats. This component is shock and vibration resistant, making it suitable for even the roughest applications, and its wattage rating makes it suitable for industrial applications with extreme environmental conditions. The tapped axial configurations also make it suitable for manual resistance adjustments in both rheostats and potentiometers.
