Instrument Potentiometers

Samarius Models M-300 and M-301 are newly designed potentiometers that provide a construction suitable to both DC and audio frequency applications.
These three- inch units are designed primarily low capacitance is required. This is obtained by the use of an all-phenolic body and precision molded diallylphthalate cover plates together with non-metallic card winding.
Special types are available in the M-300 Series to meet customer requirements - multi-gang, additional taps, special resistance and linearity tolerances, shaft lengths and shaft extensions, etc.
Samarius' Engineering Department welcomes the opportunity to work with customers on non-standard configurations. Submit your drawing, specification or sketch-it will receive our immediate attention.
