Type 17P Series
Specify the type 17P for applications
where high insulation resistance and
voltage proof are key requirements.
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 approved switches can be
added to the rear of the potentiometer,
to produce rotary or push-push action
mains switches.
