Resistive Element : Hybrid

The hybrid resistive element type potentiometer is the newest type potentiometer, which consists of wirewound resistive element overlaying with conductive resistive resin.
It offers the merit of a wirewound resistive element and that of a conductive plastic resistive element.
Construction of hybrid resistive element

20HHPS-10S

It features high resolution and longer life.
