CLU1031E

Rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats control the flow of current through a resistor in a circuit. The CLU1031E is a specific type of rotary potentiometer. Its design is based on a linear resistance created by rotating a metal wheel, or "shaft", between two electrical contacts. The CLU1031E is small in size, making it well-suited for applications where space is limited.

The CLU1031E is used to measure electrical resistance. By turning the shaft of the potentiometer on or off, the resistance is adjusted. The CLU1031E is used for a wide range of applications, including calibrating audio equipment, modifying instrumentation, and controlling motors.

The working principle of the CLU1031E is based on the “law of resistance” which states that when current passes through a circuit, the voltage across the two contacts is proportional to the resistance of the circuit. This voltage can be controlled by turning the shaft of the potentiometer which regulates the amount of current that passes through it.

The CLU1031E is two-wire and single-disc type rotary potentiometer. The distinguishing feature of the CLU1031E is that, unlike other single-disc type rotary potentiometers, the CLU1031E utilizes a bridge wire connected between the two contacts, enabling accurate resistance measurement over a range of up to 1/3 ohm. This makes the CLU1031E ideal for a precise and repeatable measurements of resistance in circuits with low current, such as audio equipment.

In addition to being widely used for measurement purposes, the CLU1031E can also be used for control applications. By adjusting the resistance of the circuit, users are able to control the amount of current and voltage that passes through. This makes it ideal for tasks such as controlling motors and regulating speed.

The CLU1031E is a small and reliable rotary potentiometer which can be used for a variety of applications, from precise measurements to control applications. Its small size and ability to accurately measure resistance over a range of up to 1/3 ohm make it an excellent tool for applications in both instrumentation and audio equipment.
