Detent torque can vary from 1.2 to 2.5 times the standard
potentiometer torque.
Long life versions are available under request and have the
following characteristics at Tª:
- Potentiometers with 1 to 3 detents: up to 10K cycles.
- Potentiometers with 4 and more detents: up to 5K cycles.
Others check availability.
Unless otherwise specified the
detents are evenly spaced (using the end points as
reference).
For more than 10 detents versions please contact your
nearest PIHER authorised distributor.
NOTES FOR DETENTED VERSIONS:
Standard mechanical life: 100 cycles.
All detented versions will be studied case by case.
