67XR50LFTB

Trimmer Potentiometers

Trimmer Potentiometers are often referred to as variable resistors and are used in a variety of applications, like television remote control units, automatic control circuits, and audio equipment. The 67XR50LFTB is one such variety of Trimmer Potentiometer. It is a three-terminal adjustable device for calibrating and setting levels over a wide range of resistance values.

The 67XR50LFTB is a self-contained, single-turn potentiometer. It is a miniature, low-cost unit designed for panel mounting. It has a small footprint and is capable of tight tracking when connected in tandem. The 67XR50LFTB operates on either AC or DC power sources and is suitable for many applications requiring a level of precision.

Application Field

The 67XR50LFTB has many versatile applications across several industries. It can be used as a potentiometer for controlling volume and frequency in audio systems, as a control unit for positioning servos and potentiometers in robotic arms, and as a regulator for LCDs in television and monitor screens. Other applications include calibration of light dimmers, adjustment of audio volume, and setting the frequency in communication or measuring devices.

This device can also be applied in high-voltage power supplies, withstanding up to 250 volts for domestic use, and up to 500 volts for industrial environments. Additionally, the 67XR50LFTB has been tested to environmental and electrical shocks for dependability and long-term accuracy.

Working Principle

The 67XR50LFTB is a potentiometer, meaning it varies an electric current through a resistance element. Usually, this is done using a contact known as a tap which is moved by a wiper. As the tap (or wiper) moves, it alters the resistance between the 2 terminals, resulting in a controlled output. The wiper is usually connected to a rotary or linear shaft and, when moved, sets the resistance at a desired level.

The 67XR50LFTB achieves this same effect using a trustable carbon element, pre-formed with a long mechanical life. This means the contact point has a reliable performance over a long period of time. Contacts are protected to prevent abrasive wear and noise-free operation. The device is also equipped with a double-ended center tap for setting minimum and maximum resistance values.

In summary, the 67XR50LFTB is an adjustable device for calibrating and setting levels over a wide range of resistance values. It has many versatile applications across a variety of industries, and its use is based on the working principle of a potentiometer, with a long mechanical life and reliable performance.
