PDB185-GTR31-504C2 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

This Bourns PDB185-GTR31-504C2 is a 17mm guitar potentiometer with a latching-push switch. It features a carbon element and offers both linear and audio taper options, with this specific model set to reverse logarithmic taper. The resistance value is 500k Ohms with a tolerance of ±20%.

 

Electrical characteristics include a power rating of 0.1 watt for linear taper and 0.05 watt for audio taper. Maximum operating voltages are 150V for linear and 100V for audio. The potentiometer has a mechanical angle of 300° ±5° and a rotational life of 15,000 cycles. The integrated DPDT switch has a life of 10,000 actuations.

 

Designed for panel mounting, it has a 3/8"-32 bushing thread and a knurled and slotted actuator. The termination style is solder lug. Environmental specifications include an operating temperature range of -10°C to +70°C and a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1.

 

This component is RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. It is suitable for applications requiring precise resistance control combined with a push-push switch function, commonly found in audio equipment and musical instrument effects.
