Vishay Model 64 Multi-Turn Trimmer Potentiometer, 5kΩ, SIP

The Vishay Model 64 is a compact, industrial-grade multi-turn trimmer potentiometer designed for precise PCB (Printed Circuit Board) mounting applications. Its small 3/8-inch square footprint makes it ideal for space-constrained environments, delivering excellent operational stability through its reliable cermet resistive element.

This fully sealed (IP67-rated) component is built to withstand demanding conditions, with an extensive operating temperature range from -55°C to +125°C. It offers fine adjustment control with a 23-turn mechanical travel, ensuring highly accurate and repeatable settings for circuit calibration and tuning.
