Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats

Rotary Potentiometers, or Rheostats, are a type of electrical component that is used to measure or adjust - resistance, current, and/or voltage. These components are often used in instrumentation and control applications, such as automotive, industrial, and medical applications. A Rheostat, or rotary potentiometer, is a three-terminal resistive device that is a variable resistor with a range of 0 to 10K ohms. It works by connecting two of the terminals to a resistance to provide a variable resistance between the two terminals.

The RHS10K is a programmable rotary potentiometer and rheostat. It has ten ohm switchable range switches, tenkohm resistance, and one watt rated power rating. It is typically used in applications such as industrial equipment, home automation, and medical instrumentation. It is also commonly used in laboratory test equipment and audio production equipment.

The RHS10K is constructed with a metal core and three contact plates. The two outside contact plates are connected to leads, while the third contact plate serves as a control point. The three contact plates are connected by a rotating shaft, which is connected to a knob or dial that is used to adjust the resistance value. By adjusting this knob or dial, the resistance value can be changed from as low as 0 ohms to as high as 10K ohms. The user can also set the range switches, which will limit the range of the resistance.

The RHS10K works by providing a variable resistance between two points. This resistance is determined by the amount of resistance between the two contacts, as well as the adjustment of the knob or dial on the rotary potentiometer. When the current is passed through the potentiometer, the resistance is transmitted to the connected device. This is done by the voltage divider circuit, which lowers the voltage back to the value required by the device.

In addition to providing a variable resistor, the RHS10K also functions as a rheostat. In this application, a resistance is set up between two points, with a voltage being applied to one terminal. When the knob or dial is adjusted, it changes the resistance between the two terminals, resulting in a change in the voltage being applied. This can be used to vary the brightness of a lightbulb, or to control the speed of a motor.

The RHS10K is a versatile and cost effective component. It is the perfect choice for applications such as home automation, industrial equipment, and medical instrumentation. With its adjustable range switch and adjustable resistance, it is an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. It is available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, making it a great choice for any application.
