Rotary potentiometers, also known as conducting potentiometers, are most commonly used as adjustable resistors in circuits to control the position of a slider or rotation of a knob. They are typically used to adjust the level of resistance in a circuit to change the level of current flowing through the circuit. The P230-2FC20BR500K is a rotary style potentiometer which can be used to adjust resistors in a wide range of applications.
Rheostats are also adjustable resistors. Rheostats are used as large current control devices where large power loss must be avoided. While they are very similar to potentiometers in some respects, they differ in that they have a lower resistance range, lower power rating, cannot be used as voltage dividers, but are typically designed as current control devices. The P230-2FC20BR500K is not a rheostat but instead is a rotary knob-style potentiometer that has been designed to offer a high degree of accuracy and reliability.
The P230-2FC20BR500K is a two-terminal adjustable rotary multi-turn potentiometer with an operating temperature range of –40°C to +85°C and a resistance range of 5k to 500k ohms. It is constructed of a precision plastic housing, and features a low-profile panel with a mounting depth of 12.7mm. The knob is adjustable over 20 turns and the potentiometer is designed to give precise resistance adjustment in 1-turn steps. This makes the P230-2FC20BR500K ideal for applications requiring the precise adjustment of a broad resistance range within a limited space.
The P230-2FC20BR500K can also be used as a rheostat for limited current control, in applications that require a very precise adjustment. As with all potentiometers, the knob adjustment directly relates to the resistance in the circuit. Rotating the knob adjusts the resistance resisting the flow of current in the circuit, thus adjusting the current. The P230-2FC20BR500K is designed to be highly accurate so that very precise adjustments can be made to the resistance level in the circuit.
The P230-2FC20BR500K is commonly used in a variety of applications such as, but not limited to, audio equipment, scientific instruments, instrument amplifiers, medical equipment, test and measurement equipment, speed controls and position controls. It is also used in applications that require accurate and reliable positioning and resistance control. All in all, the P230-2FC20BR500K is a powerful and versatile rotary style potentiometer, offering precise and reliable control in various applications.
