Vishay P16 Series 2.2kΩ 1W Panel Mount Potentiometer

The Vishay P16 Series 2.2kΩ potentiometer is a robust and reliable panel-mounted component designed for precise control and adjustment in a wide range of electronic circuits. Featuring a 1W power rating, it is suitable for applications requiring moderate power handling, offering stable performance within its specified parameters.

Constructed with a durable cermet (ceramic-metal) resistor technology, this potentiometer ensures excellent long-term stability and resistance to environmental factors. It operates reliably across a broad temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, making it a versatile choice for both industrial and commercial electronic assemblies.

This single-turn, rotary adjustment potentiometer provides linear track taper, meaning the resistance changes uniformly with the shaft rotation. This characteristic is ideal for applications like volume controls, calibration adjustments, and setting voltage levels where a direct, proportional relationship between shaft position and output is required. The panel mount design facilitates secure and straightforward installation onto equipment chassis or front panels.
