RJ13P100

Trimmer Potentiometers

Trimmer Potentiometers are designed for applications where frequent set-up and adjustment are required. The trimmer potentiometers can be used wherever variable resistors are needed, such as for audio equipment, amplifier, and signaling systems. In addition, they can be used to set voltage or current levels or bias, to audio signal frequency adjustments, or as element repetition rate controls for synchro systems.

RJ13P100 application field and working principle

The RJ13P100 is a trimmer potentiometer that provides 100 kOhm resistance, with a 1-5% tolerance. It is used in various applications such as audio system, communication system, automotive, and industrial control. It generally consists of three terminals, two of which are used to adjust the output and the third one used as ground.

The working principle of the RJ13P100 is to adjust the resistance between its two terminals in order to achieve different resistance values. The output of the resistance is determined by the position of the wiper movable contact on the resistance track. The adjustment of the resistance is done by the knob located at the top of the RJ13P100. The resistance values can be calibrated by the knob’s rotation and it can be locked in a suitable position.

The RJ13P100 trimmer potentiometers also feature a dust cap to help keep the contacts clean and a special anti-corrosion treatment to improve durability and life expectancy of the part. This makes it ideal for use in harsh and humid environment.

In summary, the RJ13P100 is a trimmer potentiometer with an adjustable resistance range of 100 kOhm, 1-5% tolerance, and dust cap and special anti-corrosion treatment. It is used in a wide range of applications such as audio systems, communication systems, automotive and industrial control. The working principle for this type of trimmer potentiometer is to adjust the resistance between its two terminals by its knob to achieve different resistance values.
