95A1A-B24-A15L

Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats

95A1A-B24-A15L is a type of rotary potentiometer, also known as a rheostat. The primary application of these types of components is for the measurement and regulation of electrical resistance in systems. By adjusting the angular position of the shaft, the resistance within the device will adjust accordingly. The operating principle of rotary potentiometers, rheostats is based on a sliding contact in which a wiper slides over a resistive element. As the shaft is rotated, the wiper slides along the resistive element, thus controlling the resistance experienced.

The 95A1A-B24-A15L is a rotary type, featuring 24 terminals on a 15mm body with a 0.5mm center shaft. This type is available in different resistance values and may feature linear or logarithmic tapers, depending on the application. Rotary potentiometers are commonly used in analog circuits, such as power supplies, circuitry for the protection of electrical equipment, and communications systems.

When it comes to installation and usage, the 95A1A-B24-A15L is simple to integrate. The device is mounted in a panel opening, with the shaft protruding through the panel. This way, an adjustable resistance allows the user to modulate the resistance within the system. This is particularly useful in systems, such as audio amplifiers, where the volume has to be adjusted by turning the shaft.

An advantage of rotary potentiometers, rheostats, such as the 95A1A-B24-A15L, is their ability to resist wear and tear. They are constructed out of material with a high resistance to abrasion and have low coefficient of friction. The base material of the rotary element is usually a cupric alloy, which is topcoated with a wear-resistant material. In addition, due to their construction, they are highly resistant to dust, dirt, damp, and other environmental contaminants.

In terms of safety, 95A1A-B24-A15L complies with relevant industry safety standards. It has a temperature range of -20 to +85°C and a working voltage of 30V. Furthermore, the device is covered with a robust, high-grade plastic housing and is designed to resist shock and vibration. This assures that it is reliable and will provide stable performance in demanding applications.

Overall, the 95A1A-B24-A15L is a reliable and efficient rotary potentiometer, rheostat, suited for a variety of applications. Its usage mainly lies in measuring and regulating electric resistance, and its easy installation, robust construction and safety further enhance its value.
