Description

POT 3296 W102 Potentiometer 1k also known as a trim pot, is a type of variable resistor or adjustable potentiometer. It adjusts , tunes, and calibrates circuits. These trimmer resistors are often used initially to calibrate equipment after manufacturing.

POT 3296 series Square trimpot trimming potentiometer/ resistor perform a variety of circuit adjustments in all types of electronic equipment, These through hole trimmers feature a slim body profile, sealed to withstand immersion board washing. It also has a larger screw slot for easier adjustment. Molded body with built-in stand offs.

A trimmer potentiometer is meant to never be seen or adjusted by the device’s user. Unlike many other variable controls, trimmer resistors are mounted directly on circuit boards and tuned with a small screwdriver or knob, or will have extended shafts that can be turned by fingers.

Trim pots are rated for very few adjustments over their lifetime. A trim pot is often used to initially calibrate equipment after manufacturing. Trim pots are commonly used in A/V components and may require adjustment when the equipment is being serviced.
