P261S-D2AF3CB10K

Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats are widely used to control electrical current in many applications, from simple (dimmer switches, volume control on audio equipment) to complex (automotive and machine control). The P261S-D2AF3CB10K is one of the most versatile rotary potentiometers available.

The P261S-D2AF3CB10K is a multi-resistant device designed for use in printed circuit boards. It is suitable for applications such as motor speed controllers, volume controls on audio equipment, and amplifiers. The device has two sets of connective terminals, one set for the rotor and one for the stator. It is constructed from high-performance, reliable components that ensure it will last for many years.

In general, the P261S-D2AF3CB10K is used to provide precise, linear or logarithmic resistance adjustment in any desired direction. It has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, a resistance value up to 100kΩ, and an accuracy of 0.5% at 25°C. In addition, the device can withstand both over-voltage protection of up to 36V and a maximum power of 0.01W. One of the main advantages of this rotary potentiometer is its long life expectancy of over 10,000 cycles of operation.

In terms of its working principle, the P261S-D2AF3CB10K consists of a movable contact (rotor) and a fixed contact (stator). The rotor is connected to an outer casing, and its position can be adjusted by rotating it. As the rotor moves, the resistance between the rotor and stator changes, providing a wide range of precisely adjustable resistance values. This is achieved by the use of the device\'s specially designed plastic housing and its contact resistance material which consists of carbon film or metal film.

The P261S-D2AF3CB10K can be used in many applications, including speed control, volume control, power supply adjustment, noise cancellation in audio equipment, and automation of various types of machines. It is also suitable for use in temperature, humidity, and pressure control systems, as well as industrial applications such as motor speed and torque control, and machine control. With its wide range of adjustable resistance values and extreme longevity, the P261S-D2AF3CB10K is an incredibly useful and versatile component for any application.
