Introduction

Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats, are a type of variable resistors used for controlling, adjusting and measuring electric current or voltage levels. The most common use for these components is in the design of control systems. They are produced in many shapes, sizes and materials giving varying performance levels. The P170N-2C10BR500K is a rotary potentiometer that has a wide ranging application fields and working principles.

Application Fields

The P170N-2C10BR500K is suitable for a wide variety of applications, ranging from audio and video equipment, to portable radio devices or medical devices. It is highly configurable, allowing it to be used in multiple settings. This allows it to be used as an amplifier adjustment, as an audio tone control, or as an input component to a wide variety of analog equipment. The P170N-2C10BR500K is also an important component in motor controls and medical monitoring equipment.

Working Principle

The P170N-2C10BR500K operates through a type of ‘resistor ladder’ principle, allowing the user to easily manipulate the input voltage. It consists of a rotating armature which is attached to a wiper that transfers a linear voltage from the armature to the resistor which is placed at its end. As the armature is rotated, the resistance between the wiper and the resistor increases or decreases, depending on its direction.The wiper also has its own contact points around the centre of the rotational area. This ‘active’ area is very small in comparison to the total area of the potentiometer, allowing for precise control of the entire range of input voltages. The resistor is capable of taking up the correct voltage level of its entire range, including the ‘active’ area.

Consitructure

The P170N-2C10BR500K is constructed as a single element, allowing it to be used for high volume applications. It consists of two parts; the armature and the resistor. The armature acts as the main body of the component, and the resistor is made up of two contacts which are located near the centre of the body. The entire body of the P170N-2C10BR500K is protected from environmental elements with a rubber gasket.

Advantages

The P170N-2C10BR500K has several advantages that make it a popular choice for many applications. Its construction is highly durable, allowing it to withstand shock and vibration. It is also simple to install, meaning that it can be incorporated into systems quickly and easily. Additionally, the resistor ladder principle of the P170N-2C10BR500K means that it is able to provide precise control over the voltages of the entire range.

Conclusion

The P170N-2C10BR500K is a rotary potentiometer that is suitable for a wide variety of applications, ranging from audio and video equipment to medical devices. It operates by using a resistor ladder principle, which allows precise control of input voltage levels. Its construction is highly durable, allowing it to withstand shock and vibration, and it can be easily incorporated into systems.
