PT-15 / PTC-15
15-mm carbon / cermet through-hole potentiometer
The PT-15 and PTC-15 potentiometers offer 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.

•Standard mechanical life is 500 cycles.
•Long life versions are available upon 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 Piher Sensing Systems 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 section).
•Detent torque can vary from 1.2 to 2.5 times the standard potentiometer torque. For all detents versions of more than 13 detents the detent torque will be 0.5 to 3.5 Ncm
•For V02, V21, V12, V22, V18 and V24 mounting detent configuration will be studied case by case.
•For more than 13 detents versions please contact Piher Sensing Systems.

Constant value zones can be combined
with strategically located mechanical
detents to provide exact alignment
between the electrical output (flat areas)
and the mechanical detent position.
This provides clear mechanical positions
that are not only repeatable, but
perfectly aligned electrical outputs at
each of the (detent) angles. The detents
also prevent output values from
changing due to vibration or accidental
rotor movements.
The result is a higher level of precision
in controlling lighting, temperature,
motor or other electronic control
systems.
