Scope
This specification covers the general requirements for precision, wirewound, variable resistors whose electrical output (in terms of percent of applied voltage) are linear or nonlinear with respects to the angular position of the shaft. This specification includes requirements for linear and nonlinear, single turn and multiturn, single-section (cup) and multisection variable resistors. These resistors are capable of full-load operation at maximum ambient temperatures of 70°C and 85°C and are suitable for continuous operation, when properly derated, to maximum temperatures of 125°C and 150°C (see 3.1, 6.2, and figure 10). This specification includes requirements for category I, category II, and category III precision resistors as described herein (see 3.2).
intended Use:
The resistors covered by this specification are military unique due to the fact that these devices must be able to operate satisfactorily in military systems under the following demanding... View More
