25W Rheostats High Power Wirewound Potentiometers

Yes, a rheostat can reduce voltage by varying the resistance in a circuit. These 25W wirewound potentiometers provide reliable proportional control for high-wattage analog devices, allowing for controlled voltage and current adjustments in industrial automation and process control systems.

Both AC reversible motors (115 VAC) and DC motors (12 VDC) are available. The AC motors offer RPM options of 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, and 15 RPM, while DC motors provide 1-2 RPM options for different automation speed requirements.

The built-in slip clutch mechanism protects the rheostat end stops from damage during operation. This protection system prevents mechanical failure and extends the service life of the motorized rheostat by disengaging when resistance limits are reached.

In addition to the 25W rating, these rheostats are available in 50W and 100W ratings to meet various power requirements for industrial applications. All wattage ratings are based on 25°C ambient temperature for optimal performance and reliability.

Yes, resistance values can be specified when ordering to meet your specific application requirements. Custom specifications are available with support from engineers who have over 35 years of experience in industrial control systems.

All rheostats feature ±10% tolerance for reliable and consistent performance in industrial applications. This precision ensures accurate proportional control in automated manufacturing processes, chemical plants, and pharmaceutical facilities.

These rheostats come with a 3-year warranty and are backed by comprehensive repair and rebuilding services. Worldwide technical support is available from expert engineers, with all products manufactured in the USA to rigorous quality standards.
