Electrical and Mechanical Specifications
Resistance Range
1 ohm through 20,000 ohms (linear taper)
Resistance Tolerance
Standard: ±20%
Special: ±10%
Power Rating, Watts
2 watts @ 55°C derated to no load @ 105°C,
linear taper, bushing mounted control on
steel panel 4"x4" x .050"
(101.6mm x 101.6mm x 1.27mm).
Voltage Rating
Terminals to mounting surface (insulated types only):
High pot test, one minute — 900 VAC
Operating Maximum
— 500 VDC
Across end terminals:
Determined by resistance value and
wattage rating
Resistance Tapers
Standard: Linear
Taps
None
Incorporated Fixed Resistor
A fixed resistor can be incorporated at the end
of CW or CCW rotation to a minimum of 15% of
the total resistance value. The rotation is
shortened by an amount proportional to the ratio
of the fixed resistor to the total resistance value.

center terminal and terminals at both ends of the
resistance element.
Grounded Construction (Optional)
The grounded construction is supplied without a
center terminal and the contactor is connected to
the case. This construction can be furnished with
one end terminal at either end of the resistance
element or with terminals at both ends of the
element.
