Trimmer Potentiometers

The Application Field & Working Principle of TC86F-1-103

Trimmer Potentiometers are a type of variable resistor which is widely used in adjusting device, electric test, automatic-control instrument and electric circuit of communication equipment etc. The particular function of this kind of potentiometer is to help users to adjust and measure the angular displacement accurately. The Potentiometers of this type are made up by resistance element, slider and frame, etc.

TC86F-1-103 is usually made up by metal material and can be connected to circuit. There are two types of TC86F-1-103, which are horizontal trimmer potentiometer and vertical trimmer potentiometer. The working voltage of this product should be affected by the size of its power. The approximate comparison is like vertical trimmer< horizontal trimmer. There is a linear relationship between the output voltage and the mechanical displacement.

Different from other potentiometers like the linear type or rotary type, the trimmer potentiometer usually consist of three terminals and the knob. The other two terminals are separately connected to two ends of a resistor in order to adjust the magnitude of resistance. It consist of linear and circular adjustment. The linear adjustment controlling knob along a straight line direction to adjust resistance, while the circular Adjustment adjusts resistance through rotating pointer.

Given that the terminal of TC86F-1-103 is fragile and the connecting terminals should be welded firmly, the welding parameters are also very important when users weld it. The welding voltage should be low and the current density should be not too large. It can help to meet the needs with long service life. Otherwise, the performance of the potentiometer will be decreased and the lifespan will also be affected.

The application field of TC86F-1-103 mainly contains electric test, electric calibration, sensor, electronic tuning scale, automatic control instrument and other application.The electric brakes, water-display clock, automatic flow meter, electric power filler and all kinds of instrument and equipment are all applied in this trimmer potentiometers product.

TC86F-1-103 has many advantage like long life-span, excellent quality, good environmental adaptability and strong anti-interference ability. Due to the excellent performance of this potentiometer, it many be applied in many areas and cause a wide application field.

Conclusion

TC86F-1-103 has a wide application field and high reliability, which makes it an ideal choice for application in electric test, electric calibration, sensor, electronic tuning scale and automatic control instrument,etc. The advantages of this potentiometer are excellent performance and long life-span, which is an important reason why it is so popular in the current market.
