The PT10 potentiometer offers
control where frequent
adjustment is required. The
shaftless design allows for
employment of different
engagement mechanisms, such
as a customized shaft, a motor
control or a human interface
adjustment.
This potentiometer can also
control variable outputs including
frequency, change in motor speed
or volume.
Typical applications include test
and measurement equipment,
consumer electronics,
appliances, small engines,
robotics, motion controllers, and
medical equipment control
panels.
This datasheet shows you the
basics of the PT10 potentiometer
that is quite versatile and easy to
taylor. Do not hesitate to contact
Piher for advice.

Long life versions are available
under request and have the
following characteristics at Tª:
- Potentiometers with 1 to 3
detents: up to 10K cycles
- Potentiometers with 4 and more
detents: up to 5K cycles
Please consult your nearest Piher
supplier if unique non-
overlapping values at each detent
position or LOG/ALOG tapers are
required.
Different output voltage values
can be matched at each detent
position (see next page).
Detent torque can vary from 1.2
to 2.5 times the standard
potentiometer torque.
For V05 mounting: check
availability.
For more than 16 detents versions
please contact your nearest
PIHER authorised distributor.
