Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats: P170NP1-QC15BR200K application field and working principleRotary Potentiometers, Rheostats, such as the P170NP1-QC15BR200K are variable resistors which are widely used in a range of applications, from simple volume and tone controls all the way to sophisticated motor control units. It works much like a see-saw, with the resistor divided into two parts and connected at a third point along the flexible arm. The moveable resistor is known as the contact and travels along the resistance track as the arm moves up and down.The applications of rotary potentiometers and rheostats like the P170NP1-QC15BR200K are very versatile. Commonly used in analog electronic equipment, they are used to measure relative displacement and linear displacement but also found in motor speed control and pressure sensors. Rotary potentiometers can be used as on-off switches in signal conditioning modules, in audio equalizers and for controlling air flow in medical equipment.The working principle of a rotary potentiometer like the P170NP1-QC15BR200K is fairly simple. This type of device consists of three main parts: the switch terminal, resistance track and the moveable contact (also known as the wiper). As the contact slides along the resistor track, it changes the resistance between the terminals. This change in resistance creates a voltage drop across the terminals, which is then used to measure current through the circuit.Rotary potentiometers and rheostats like the P170NP1-QC15BR200K operate using the principle of resistive voltage divider. The voltage is divided across the contact and the resistance track by a moveable contact. This contact slides up and down the resistor track to divide the voltage between the two terminals and produce changes in resistance. Depending on the application, this resistance can be used to measure current or alter the power levels in a circuit.The P170NP1-QC15BR200K is a linear rotary taper potentiometer and comes with an electrical angle of 200 degrees. This full-range type of potentiometer is well suited for applications such as volume control, tone control, brightness control, speed control, and motor control. It features a durable construction and a wide selection of resistance values, making it a great choice for any application that requires adjustable resistance.In conclusion, the P170NP1-QC15BR200K is a superior rotary potentiometer and rheostat, offering excellent performance and reliability. It\'s suitable for a variety of applications, from simple volume and tone controls to more advanced motor control units. Its working principle is based on the resistive voltage divider, making it ideal for measuring current or altering power levels. The device is also highly durable and offers a wide selection of resistance values, making it the perfect component for any application where adjustable resistance is required.
