As well as flush slot operation, there are extended shaft and finger knob versions (see photo).
The family is called M61, and it includes both top and side adjustment styles.
Resistance options span 10Ω to 2MΩ (± 10 %) in a 1 – 2 – 5 sequence, and electrical travel is nominally 280°.
Operation is over -55 to +125°C – with 500mW rating at +85°C, dropping to nothing at +125°C. Temperature coefficient is ±100ppm/°C.
They are expected to be used in welding equipment, power tools, 3D printers and air conditioning.
