Overview: This document provides technical specifications and ordering information for Ohmite's wirewound rheostats and potentiometers. It includes details on various models, their electrical and mechanical characteristics, and mounting instructions.
Specifications:
  • Model Types: Various models including C, E, H, J, G, K, L, P, N, R, U with power ratings ranging from 7.5W to 1000W.
  • Ohmic Range: Models cover a range from 0.5Ω to 50KΩ.
  • Voltage Rating: Dependent on resistance value, with maximum RMS voltage specified for each model.
  • Mechanical Dimensions: Detailed dimensions for shaft, core, and mounting are provided for each model.
  • Torque and Rotation: Shaft rotation is typically 300° with specified torque values.
Mounting Instructions:
  • Panels can be mounted with specified thickness and bushing sizes, using hex nuts or flat-head screws depending on the model.
  • Specific instructions are provided for models with different mounting requirements.
Standards and Compliance:
  • Models H, J, K, L, and N are UL and CSA listed.
  • RoHS compliant products are available, indicated by an 'E' suffix in the part number.
Ordering Information:
  • Part numbers are structured to indicate wattage, model, shaft type, and core type.
  • Custom rheostats can be ordered by contacting Ohmite sales offices.
Additional Notes:
  • All rheostats have a 10% tolerance and are subject to mechanical wear.
  • Silicone-ceramic coating is applied to certain models at specified ohmic values.
