The P160KN-3QC15B10K is a 16 mm panel potentiometer from the P160 Series featuring a conductive plastic element with a side-adjust PC pin termination style. This model incorporates a Q-type shaft with 21 detents (3-position code), a linear B-taper response, and a total resistance of 10 kO. It delivers 260° of actual electrical travel with a maximum input voltage of 200 Vac and a power rating of 0.2 W for B-taper operation. The potentiometer exhibits excellent durability with 100,000 cycle rotational life, a rotational torque range of 0.5 to 1.25 oz-in, and operates reliably across -20°C to +70°C. With its metal shaft/bushing construction, 18-tooth knurl, and RoHS compliance, this component is ideal for audio equipment, industrial control panels, and consumer electronics requiring precise analog adjustment with mechanical detent feedback.
