Introduction

Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats (6173R10KL.25) are devices that are used to measure and vary electrical resistance, acting as a variable resistor with the ability to rotate its shaft to vary the resistance. They are used in a variety of applications and can be found in most electronic circuits.

Module Design

The 6173R10KL.25 rotary potentiometer/rheostat is designed to have a 10K ohm resistance range and a 30° electrical angle of travel for the center portion of the shaft rotation. Its body-only design features is a side-by-side construction of the linear potentiometer and a rheostat on the back of a single module, while the shaft/encoder position provides a digital output of 0-10Vdc. The module has an overall maximum height of 17.3mm, a mounting depth of 7.9mm and a nominal diameter of 8.8mm. It consists of an integral switching device with a current capacity of up to 0.5A over a 50/60 Hz AC circuit, along with a center-off position.

Application

The 6173R10KL.25 rotary potentiometer/rheostat is most commonly used in applications requiring basic volume/expression control, dimming or highlighting. They can also be used in motor applications, such as for controlling servos and stepper motors. They are often used in audio systems and other audio equipment as basic knobs for controlling volume. This potentiometer/rheostat can also be used in applications that require precision control of power, such as in medical and industrial machines.

Working Principle

When the 6173R10KL.25 rotary potentiometer/rheostat is used, an electromechanical connection between the rotating shaft and a sliding contact is made. The shaft of the module is connected to a sliding contact, which is then connected to the resistance element. As the shaft is rotated, the contact is moved along the resistance element, thereby varying the resistance value. This resistance value is then measured in the form of an electrical voltage or current. The encoder is also connected to the shaft of the module, and provides a digital output that allows for more precise control of the resistance. The current capacity of the module can also be controlled by adjusting the amount of current flowing through the resistive element.
