Vishay Sfernice Fully Sealed Potentiometers Cermet (PRV6)
Conductive Plastic (PARV6)
PANEL SEALING
Except for dia. 4 mm shaft, an O.ring is supplied with the
potentiometer. This O.ring should be placed into the groove
of the body and ensures the panel sealing.
For dia. 4 mm shaft please see note “P” in ordering
information.
SHAFTS
Shaft lengths are measured from the mounting face to the
free end of the shaft. Special shafts are available if the
customer supplies a drawing. The shaft slot is aligned to the
wiper within ± 10°.
HARDWARE
Nuts, washer and O.ring are separately supplied (not
mounted on the potentiometer), in a small bag placed in the
packaging.
LOCATING PEG
Except for dia. 4 mm shaft, the potentiometers are delivered
with 2 opposite locating pegs orientated at 45°. These
2 pegs can be easily broken-off by the customer. On
request, the orientation of the pegs can be at 30° instead of
45°. Order Designation: PRV6 L (see ordering information)
