BOURNS 3006 Series Trimmer Potentiometer, Cermet, 15 Turn, 1MΩ

The BOURNS 3006 Series is a high-quality, cermet, multi-turn trimming potentiometer designed for precise circuit adjustments in a wide range of electronic equipment. Its through-hole mounting and robust construction make it a reliable choice for demanding applications.

This trimmer potentiometer features a 15-turn adjustment mechanism, allowing for exceptionally fine and accurate resistance settings. This multi-turn design is ideal for applications requiring high precision, such as calibrating measuring equipment for linear distance, angle, or rotation in production environments. The side adjustment is operated via a lead screw for controlled tuning.

Built for durability, the component boasts a rotational life of 200 cycles and is sealed to an IP65 rating, offering protection against dust and low-pressure water jets. This makes it suitable for use in environments where exposure to contaminants is a concern. With a resistance range spanning from 10 ohm to 5MΩ and a standard ±10% tolerance, it provides great flexibility for circuit design.

Performance is maintained across a broad operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, with a stable temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C. It has a power rating of 0.75W (750mW) and features a low PC board profile of just 1/4 inch (approx. 6.35mm) high, conserving valuable space on crowded circuit boards. Its 3/4 inch rectangular shape is a common industry standard for easy integration.
