Trimmer potentiometer 10 kOhm - horizontal, 3 pins, THT
This goes with it
Description
Product overview
- Trimmer potentiometer with a resistance value of 10 kOhm
- Horizontal design for PCB mounting
- Adjustment via hex socket using a tool
- 3 pins for through-hole mounting (THT)
- Variable resistance adjustable from 0 to 10 kOhm
- Low profile for densely populated circuit boards
Product description
This trimmer potentiometer is an adjustable resistor for PCB mounting. Inside, a movable contact taps the resistive track, enabling a variable partial voltage between 0 and 10 kOhm. Adjustment is only possible using a tool with a hex socket, not by hand, so the component is suitable exclusively for adjustments that are rarely repeated.
The component has three pins for through-hole mounting: two at the ends of the resistive track and one at the wiper. The horizontal design protrudes only slightly above the circuit board and also fits on densely populated boards or in low-profile housings.
Typical applications include setting reference voltages in power supplies, calibrating measurement circuits, or fine-tuning signal levels in sensor circuits and amplifiers. Since adjustment requires a tool and is not performed continuously, the trimmer is used where adjustment is completed after assembly.
Safety information
Trimmer potentiometers are intended exclusively for building prototypes and for testing and development purposes, and are not suitable for installation in household mains circuits. Work on or near electrical installations must be carried out by qualified electricians; if in doubt, consult a qualified electrician before commissioning.
