Vishay / Sfernice P16FNM Cermet Knob Potentiometers

Vishay / Sfernice P16FNM Cermet Knob Potentiometers are constructed with a metallic knob for durability and robustness in applications. These IP67 sealed devices integrate a knob with a panel potentiometer in a single component, eliminating the need for a separate knob that requires extra assembly. These compact potentiometers also reduce the clearance required behind the panel to only <15mm because the mounting hardware and terminals are situated on the back side of the panel. The P16FNM series offers a high dielectric strength of 5000VAC, power ratings up to 1W at +40°C, and reliable performance with 10K switch lifecycles. Vishay / Sfernice P16FNM Cermet Knob Potentiometers are ideal for industrial and audio applications, including those in harsh environments.
