Rotary Linear Potentiometer 10K Ohm

A rotary potentiometer, commonly known as a potentiometer or pot, is an adjustable electronic component used to vary the resistance in a circuit. It is often used for controlling the volume, brightness, or other parameters in electronic devices.

When you mention a "10 kilo ohm" rotary potentiometer, it means that the potentiometer has a total resistance of 10 kilo ohms (10,000 ohms). This value indicates the maximum resistance that can be achieved by rotating the potentiometer to its maximum position. The actual resistance can be varied by rotating the shaft or knob of the potentiometer.

Potentiometers are available in various resistance values, including 10 kilo ohms. The resistance value determines the sensitivity and range of adjustment provided by the potentiometer. In the case of a 10 kilo ohm potentiometer, it means that the resistance can be adjusted from 0 ohms (minimum position) to 10 kilo ohms (maximum position).

Please note that potentiometers also have other specifications such as power rating, tolerance, and physical dimensions, which may vary depending on the specific model or manufacturer.

Specifications:

• Resistance: 10K-Ohms +/- 20%
• Total Rotation: 300° +/- 5°
