CA6 Carbon Potentiometers CA 14 www.acptechnologies.com
CA6 6mm carbon potentiometers with plastic housing and protection type IP (dust-proof). CA6 potentiometers are available both in through-hole and in SMD terminal confi guration. The substrate in our SMD potentiometers is high temperature resistant, for refl ow soldering. Tapers available include linear, log and antilog, even for SMD potentiometers. ACP can also study special requests. Terminals are manufactured in tinned brass to guarantee better soldering and higher resistance to corrosion. They can be provided straight or crimped (with snap in ), which is recommended to hold the potentiometer to the board prior to the soldering operation. Thumbwheels and shafts can be provided either separately or already inserted in the potentiometer. CA6VSMD potentiometers, with or without thumbwheel, can be requested in Bulk or Tape & Reel (T&R) packaging. ACP s potentiometers can be adjusted from either side, both in the horizontal and the vertical adjustment types. There is a guide on the housing to simplify the manual adjusting operations. Our potentiometers can be manufactured in a wide range of possibilities regarding: - Resistance value. - Tolerance. - Tapers / variation laws of the resistive element (linear, log, antilog). - Others on request. - Pitch. - Positioning of the wiper (the standard is at 0%). - Housing and rotor color. - Mechanical life. - Self-extinguishable plastic parts according to UL 94 V-0. Applications - Small electronic appliances. - Measurement and test equipment. - Automotive: alarms, switches - Telecommunication equipment (antenna amplifi ers and receivers, videocomm., intercomm.) - Alarm systems. www.acptechnologies.com 1
CA6 Models All models shown here have the standard rotor for the 6mm series, the cross (X). Models can be manufactured with any of the rotors listed on the rotor menu. The color of the housing or rotor can also be modifi ed. CA6 H CA6 V CA6 V CA6 VS CA6 HSMD CA6 VSMD Rotors The rotor by default is the cross (X). Accessories are designed for the X rotor. 1,±0,0 0,6±0,0 1,6 +0,0-0 0,6±0,0 1,8 +0,07-0,03 M N X Shafts Shafts are offered in different colors. On request, they can also be provided in accordance with UL 94 V-0. Potentiometers can be supplied with shafts already inserted in. ACP can also study special shafts. 13 13 1, 17, 18,3 14 60 603 604 60 608 6031 Thumbwheels Thumbwheels are offered in different colors. On request, they can also be provided in accordance with UL 94 V-0. Potentiometers can be supplied with thumbwheels already inserted in. ACP can also study special thumbwheels. 6001 6030 603 Terminals In the CA6 family, ACP will always recommend terminals with snap in in order to better hold the component to the board prior to soldering.

Adjustment possibilities ACP s potentiometers can be adjusted through either the front side (WT) or the collector side (WTI): WTI Collector side WT Front side WTI Collector side WT Front side Potentiometers with cut track The resistive element in this potentiometer has an area with very high resistive values, resulting in an open circuit. Recommended for lighting regulation. With cut at the beginning of the track CCW: Off-On. With cut at the end of track- CW: On-Off. Others positions available on request.
