COMPONENTS
LOG No FO147 2 Pages Issue 3 05-01
Specify the type 17P for applications where high insulation
resistance and voltage proof are ke y r equirements.
The materials used in the all plastic body and spindle
construction are UL approved making it an ideal
component for domestic appliances and control systems
where safety is of prime importance.
This popular low cost potentiometer is suitable for
industrial and professional applications.
A range of switches approv ed to BS415 can be added to the
rear of the potentiometer, to produce rotary or push-push
action mains switches.
