Rotary Potentiometer Rheostats

Rotary Potentiometers, or simply Potentiometers, with Rheostats are devices used primarily to measure or control the flow of electric current. They are used in a wide variety of electrical applications and devices, from controlling voltage in solar panels and automotive applications to providing direct mechanical feedback in robotics and navigation systems. PTR902-2015K-B103 is a type of Potentiometer or Rheostat designed with a rotary mechanism for precision and accuracy. It is specifically designed for industrial applications, offering performance and reliability which surpass the commonly available plastic-bodied Potentiometers.

Application Field

Potentiometers like PTR902-2015K-B103 are mainly used in industrial applications such as automotive electronics, medical equipment, robotics, navigation equipment, appliances, and lighting. They are also used in HVAC systems and musical instruments. In automotive electronics, they are used to control the voltage provided to key components. Moreover, in robotics, the rotary element can provide a smooth and precise control over a robotic arm or any other robotic device. It additionally helps to provide feedback which can be used to accurately control the speed or position of the robot.

Working Principle

PTR902-2015K-B103 uses the principles of resistance and electrical current control. The element of the Potentiometer is a resistive composition of metal or ceramic materials. When a voltage is applied across two of its terminals, a current passes through it proportional to the amount of resistance between the two terminals. The third terminal is connected to a moving contact called a wiper. This wiper is connected to a dial or knob that can be used to rotate the wiper in order to adjust the amount of resistance between the two terminals. By adjusting the resistance, electric current flow through the element is altered, allowing for precise control of the applied voltage.

In Rheostats, the third terminal is bypassed, preventing any resistance adjustment. Current flow is thus altered only by adjusting the resistance between the two terminals. This is useful for controlling the amount of current flowing through a circuit, allowing for precise current adjustments. Since the voltage is not affected, the Rheostat is used for applications which require the same voltage sources but require different current amounts due to varying loads on the circuit.

PTR902-2015K-B103 devices are designed with superior performance and reliability compared to standard plastic-bodied Potentiometers and Rheostats. They are especially suited for applications requiring precision and dependability. With its excellent temperature stability, precision, and robustness, it will serve as a reliable and accurate solution to most industrial applications.
