5613R1KL.5CT is a product of the potentiometer and rheostat family. A potentiometer or a rheostat is a type of resistor with a rotating contact. The main difference between the two is that a potentiometer has a fixed resistance whereas a rheostat changes its resistance in response to commands from a controlling device. The 5613R1KL.5CT has a resistance range of 1000Ω with an accuracy of ±10% and a power rating of 1/8W, making it a good choice for both light and heavy duty applications.The application field of 5613R1KL.5CT is diverse and depend on the specific need of the user. The main applications of potentiometers are static voltage divider circuits and linear motion and position sensors. It can also be used to measure current in series. Rheostats on the other hand are mostly used for controlling current, either as a variable resistor in a regulating circuit or as an AC dimmer. Both potentiometers and rheostats can also be used for controlling audio volume.The working principle of 5613R1KL.5CT is based on the fact that when any resistor’s ends are connected to a voltage source, a certain amount of current will flow through it depending on the voltage and the resistance. In this case, the 5613R1KL.5CT has a resistance of 1000Ω and can handle a maximum voltage of 36V, so the current is given by I = V/R = 36/1000 = 0.036 Amperes.Now, when the contact is rotated in relation to the resistor’s ends, the resistance between them changes accordingly and so does the current. Depending on the wiper contact position, the resistance can range from 000Ω to 1000Ω and so will the current being supplied. This is a convenient way of adjusting the current and thus the voltage in a specific circuit in order to obtain desired results.Apart from the voltage divider, the 5613R1KL.5CT can be used as a basic level regulator or even act as a two state switch. By connecting the terminals in a certain way it is possible to limit the current to two values, either “on” or “off”. This is beneficial when it comes to controlling the intensity of a light or to limit the current going through a circuit to a certain predefined maximum or minimum value. In summary, the 5613R1KL.5CT is a potentiometer and rheostat family product with a resistance range of 1000Ω and a voltage rating of 36V. Its main applications areas are static voltage dividing and linear motion and position sensors, but it can also be used as a current limiter, basic level regulator or as a two state switch. The working principle relies on the fact that its resistance changes when the contact is rotated from one end to another, and therefore the resulting current.
