Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats

The RJS16RE is an adjustable, variable resistance device used in many electronics applications, in particular for setting voltage levels, controlling signals, regulating AC power draw, and controlling the speed of motors. It is part of the Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats family, commonly used in industrial, automotive, and other devices.

Working Principle

The RJS16RE functions in a similar fashion to a linear potentiometer, except that instead of sliding a contact along a track of varying resistance, the contact is twisted in a circular motion. This motion results in a change of resistance as the contact travels against the track. A spring attached to the handle causes the contact to be pushed back to its zero position when released.

The contact is mounted on the spindle of a potentiometer-wired resistive network, which is either connected to a voltage source or ground, depending on the use case. This creates a voltage divider circuit, with the wiper providing the particular voltage value depending on its position. As the contact moves across the roller, varying voltage is produced, which can be used to control various parameters.

Advantages

RJS16RE has many advantages. They are impervious to shock and vibration, and they permit quicker adjustment than other types of resistor or potentiometer. In addition, they produce less noise and are available in high power rating forms. The RJS16RE also produces little signal degradation, making it suitable for high-level audio applications.

Typical Applications

The RJS16RE is used in a number of different industries and applications. It is often used in audio volume and tone control, AC power draw adjustments, and motor speed regulators. It is also used in professional recording and sound studios, in automotive applications such as automotive systems and fuel injection systems, and in industrial automation for controlling voltage and current.

RJS16RE is also common in medical equipment and consumer electronics. It is often used in medical imaging systems to control the level of intensity of images. This can involve a range of different voltage levels which are all adjustable using RJS16RE. It can also be used in consumer electronics such as TVs, DVD players and gaming consoles.

Conclusion

The RJS16RE is a versatile, adjustable variable resistance device. It is part of the Rotary Potentiometers, Rheostats family, and is used in many electronics applications. It produces little signal degradation and is impervious to shock and vibration, making it suitable for a range of different applications including professional recording and sound studios, medical imaging systems and consumer electronics. RJS16RE has many advantages, including quicker adjustment than other types and high power ratings.
