Part Numbering System
Nominal Impedance Code:
Expressed in ohms. A three digit code
where the first two digits are significant figures, and the third digit
indicates the number of zeros that follow these figures (i.e., 500 = 50Ω;
750 = 75Ω; 601 = 600Ω ).
Shaft Length: 20S
= 13mm Shaft with Knurled, Slotted End Style.
30S
= 23mm Shaft with Knurled, Slotted End Style.
Blank
= No shaft.
Nominal Attenuation: 6.5dB
( 0.7 Attenuation Tolerance).
12dB
( 1.1 Attenuation Tolerance).
20dB
( 1.5 Attenuation Tolerance).
Dash:
Use a dash, with no space before or after the dash, to separate
Style and Nominal Attenuation. Example: AT10PK-20dB20S500
Style: P
= PCB Mount, No Shaft, Rotor Flush with Housing,
3-Pin Triangular Pattern, Top Adjust.
S
= PCB Mount, No Shaft, Rotor Flush with Housing,
3-Pin Triangular Pattern, Side Adjust.
PK
= PCB Mount, Plastic Shaft (available in 2 lengths),
3-Pin Triangular Pattern, Top Adjust Only.
Size: 10
= 10mm Square Housing.
