RHS175E

Rotary Potentiometers and Rheostats are useful components in a range of applications. The RHS175E is a type of rotary rheostat or potentiometer manufactured by Warth & Sohn. This component is primarily used for controlling the level and intensity of electric current in electronic devices.

The RHS175E operates on the principle of resistance. Its design consists of an internal resistor with a contact point that moves along its path. The resistance of the component varies according to its physical dimension and the position of the contact point on its path. As the contact point moves, the resistance of the component changes, thus changing the level and intensity of the electric current passing through it.

The RHS175E has a wide range of applications. It can be used to create a simple voltage divider circuit, allowing for the adjustment of the input voltage level. It can also be used in power regulators, providing an adjustable voltage drop by varying resistance. Furthermore, it can be used as a volume control component or to adjust the light intensity in lamps.

The RHS175E offers two terminal connections and a voltage rating of 175V. The component is designed to handle up to 5 amperes of current and has a sliding contact arm that can be operated either manually or automatically. It is very easy to use and can be installed in a variety of areas. Furthermore, it is designed with a high degree of durability, making it suitable for use in demanding environments.

The RHS175E is a versatile component that is suitable for a range of applications in both domestic and commercial settings. Due to its robust design and ease of use, this component is an ideal choice for anyone looking to control the level and intensity of electric current.
