Switch Specifications
Nominal Current: 1A, 250 VAC
Contact Resistance: 10 milli ohms
Operating Torque: 10 to 30mNm
Operating Angle: 30° ± 5°
Test Voltage: 500 V
Type CP16 Series
Specify the type CP16 for
applications where high insulation
resistance and voltage proof are
key requirements. The materials
used in the all-plastic body and
spindle construction make it an
ideal component for domestic
appliances and control systems
where safety is of prime
importance. This popular low cost
potentiometer is suitable for indus-
trial and professional applications.
