Working Principle
The 5613R1KL.25 consists of two carbon resistive elements that are situated together. The resistive elements form an adjustable voltage divider, which can be used to determine the position of the shaft and provide the output voltage or resistance. The operation of the 5613R1KL.25 occurs when a voltage is applied to the unit, such as those provided by a 5-12VDC power source. The current flows through the resistive elements of the dual component, which cause an electrical field to be generated across the two segments.
When the user turns the shaft, the output voltage and resistance change depending on the amount of shaft movement and the angle of the contact surface. The maximum resistance of the unit is limited to 250 V, while the output voltage can range between 0 and 10 VDC depending on the resistor combination. The 5613R1KL.25 can be used to control motor speed, lighting intensity, or small electric circuits for process control, among many other applications.
