PV36P504C01B00

Trimmer Potentiometers are electrical components made up of a resistive element, and are used to vary resistance in circuits. The PV36P504C01B00 is a type of trimmer potentiometer. It offers a wide range of features to cater to industrial needs.

Application Field

The PV36P504C01B00 is an excellent choice for applications with sensitive equipment or for those needing precise adjustment of potential. It is suitable for applications with extreme vibration or shock, such as pipelines, switchboards, military equipment, telecommunication equipment, and computer networks. The robust construction and design of the product makes it a suitable choice for tough applications including harsh environmental conditions.

Working Principle

The PV36P504C01B00 works on the principle of varying resistance. It consists of a simple resistive element—typically a carbon film, wire wound or metal oxide—which ensures the trimmer potentiometer operates reliably. The contact fingers sitting on the rotating section of the device apply pressure on the resistive element as they move across it, thus changing the resistance in the circuit. By varying the resistance, the current in the circuit is varied accordingly, thereby controlling the output voltage, which can be used to adjust amplification, frequency, and other factors.

Conclusion

The PV36P504C01B00 trimmer potentiometer is an excellent electrical component for controlling the output voltage in a range of circuits. Its robust build and design make it suitable for extreme applications, such as pipelines and switchboards. The simple resistive element is designed to offer reliable operation, and the contact fingers applied on the top of the device increases the resistance in the circuit when they are moved across, thereby controlling the output voltage.
