VISHAY 1kΩ 18-Turn Cermet Trimmer

The VISHAY 1kΩ 18-Turn Cermet Trimmer from the 43 Series is a high-precision multi-turn potentiometer engineered for applications requiring accurate and stable resistance adjustments. Designed for through-hole mounting, this component ensures secure integration onto printed circuit boards. Its side-adjust configuration allows for convenient access and fine-tuning, even in compact or densely populated layouts.

Built with a robust cermet element, this trimmer offers excellent stability and a long operational life. The multi-turn mechanism, featuring 18 turns, provides highly precise resolution, making it suitable for sensitive calibration tasks. With a track resistance of 1kΩ and a power rating of 750mW, it efficiently handles typical circuit loads while maintaining a resistance tolerance of ± 10% and a temperature coefficient of ± 100ppm/°C.

The physical design comprises a 3/4 inch rectangular shape, measuring 43 mm in height, 33 mm in width, and 15 mm in depth, with a total weight of 95 grams. It is qualified to MIL-R-22097 standards, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. The component operates dependably across a broad temperature range from -55°C to 125°C, making it suitable for rigorous industrial and military applications where consistent performance is critical.
