PTD905-2015P-A203

Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats

The PTD905-2015P-A203 is a type of rotary potentiometer, rheostat, produced by Pertech Electronics. It is designed for precision voltage adjustment and monitoring in a wide range of applications.

A rotary potentiometer consists of a circular, wiper arm with a variable resistance element. The resistance element may be a physical element such as steel or aluminum, or a semiconductor element such as a silicon diode. The circular arm is rotated to adjust the resistance of the element, thus changing the voltage, current or other parameter that the potentiometer controls.

Application Field

The PTD905-2015P-A203 is designed for many applications, such as switched power supply, amplifier gain adjustment, motor control, and resistance measurement. In addition, it can be used for measuring voltage levels in systems. It is also useful for calibrating electronic equipment.

Working Principle

When the resistance element of the rotary potentiometer is changed, the output voltage level changes accordingly. This voltage is used to adjust the operation of the equipment connected to the potentiometer. Depending on the application, the output of the potentiometer may be an adjustable voltage or current value.

The working principle of the PTD905-2015P-A203 is based on the industrial standard rheostat system. In a rheostat system, the output voltage is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the resistance of the resistance element. This is achieved by rotating the wiper arm of the potentiometer to adjust the length of the resistance element that is exposed to the current.

The PTD905-2015P-A203 is a high-precision potentiometer, designed to meet the needs of today\'s applications. It offers excellent accuracy and stability, with tolerances as low as 0.1%. Additionally, this model is capable of operating within a wide temperature range, from -40°C to +125°C.

The PTD905-2015P-A203 is a reliable and versatile rotary potentiometer, rheostat, suitable for use in a wide range of applications. It offers excellent performance and accuracy, making it an ideal choice for controlling and measuring current and voltage levels.
