Rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats are electromechanical tools. PTD902-2015K-A503 is a kind of typical rotary potentiometer. The application field and working principle of this kind are discussed in the following sections.

Application Field

PTD902-2015K-A503 is a rotary potentiometer that is widely used in various fields.

In industrial production, this type of potentiometer is installed for regulating the speed of motors, providing feedback for sensors or even used for controlling temperature. It can also be employed for monitoring the vibration and angular position. For industrial users, PTD902-2015K-A503 is an ideal choice due to its strong capability of tolerating harsh environments.

In audio and video applications, the usage of PTD902-2015K-A503 is also frequent. Manufacturers could take advantages of the smooth rotation this type of rotary potentiometers offer. The wires might be wound around the rotors, so it could be used for regulating the sound and image quality.

In many occasions, PTD902-2015K-A503 is requested to be used as a volume control tool. For instance, the DJ equipment and guitar practice amp is one of the cases.

Working Principle

PTD902-2015K-A503 adopts a simple but reliable design. It is composed of a resistive element and a sliding contact, called a wiper. Both of these components are usually mounted on a single-turn rotary actuator, and the rotation could transfer a signal from the resistive element to the wiper to accomplish a certain purposes.

As mentioned previously, the rotary potentiometer functions as varying resistance. When the actuator rotates, the contact would move along the resistive element and this will creates a resistance, or voltage, along the junction, in proportion to the amount of rotation.

Besides a single turn, there also exists rotary potentiometers that consist of multiple turns. These multiple turn potentiometers could generally offer various range to adjust in different situations. They could serve as differentials and logarithmic interpretations.

Conclusion

To sum up, PTD902-2015K-A503 is a typical rotary potentiometer typically used for different types of applications. It consists of two main components, a resistive element and a sliding contact that is in proportion to the amount of rotation. Furthermore, multiple turn potentiometers could also offer various range and interpretations.
