P16 and P16S Series Knob Potentiometers

Vishay's P16 and P16S knob potentiometers feature compact assembly for professional and industrial applications

Image of Vishay Sfernice's P16 & P16S Series Knob PotentiometersVishay's P16 and P16S series are revolutionary concepts in panel-mounted potentiometers. Their unique design integrates the potentiometer and knob into a single unit, significantly reducing the overall size of the potentiometer. The integrated knob design enables smaller products while streamlining procurement. The P16S adds an on/off switch with a detent at the beginning of travel for extra functionality. The power rating for the P16 is 1 W at 40°C with a high dielectric strength of 25 kV and a resistance range of up to 2.2 MΩ. Several device options are available, including metallic or plastic knobs, cermet or conductive plastic, several knob colors, functional markings, a special version, PA16, or for audio applications.
