P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG

Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats

The P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG is a type of rotary potentiometer, specifically a dual-layer multi turn (DLMT) rotary potentiometer. It is primarily used in the industrial and laboratory applications. A rotary potentiometer is an electrical device that can convert the rotational position of a shaft into a linear output voltage or current. A rheostat is a type of potentiometer that has a variable resistance. It is primarily used as a voltage divider or to control electrical current in circuits. Both rotary potentiometers and rheostats are used in a variety of applications, including audio and video equipment, motion control systems, instrumentation systems, and more.

P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG Application Field

The P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG is a dual-layer multi turn rotary potentiometer. It is mainly used in industrial and laboratory applications and is suitable for a variety of applications, such as position sensing, speed control, and more. It is designed to be highly reliable, having a long life of up to 10 million revolutions.

P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG Working Principle

The P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG is a dual-layer multi turn rotary potentiometer. It consists of two layers, an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer contains a resistive element which converts the rotational position of the shaft into a linear output voltage or current. The outer layer is connected to the spindle of the potentiometer and is designed to maintain the contact between the two layers to ensure a constant output resistance. When the shaft is rotated, the resistive element of the inner layer will rotate and in turn vary the output resistance according to the angle of rotation.

Conclusion

The P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG is a dual-layer multi turn rotary potentiometer. It is primarily used in industrial and laboratory applications and is capable of providing highly reliable position sensing, speed control, and more. The working principle of the P160KN2-0QC15B1MEG consists of two layers with a resistive element, which is connected to the spindle, converting the rotational position of the shaft into a linear output voltage or current.
