AutomationDirect ECX2300-5K Rotary Potentiometer

AutomationDirect ECX2300-5K is a 5 kΩ, 22 mm panel-mount rotary potentiometer with IP65 protection, designed for rugged manual control in automation panels. The 22 mm form factor fits standard panel cutouts, and the unit features a black knob for intuitive adjustment. The potentiometer provides a variable resistive input as the knob is turned, with a rotation of 285 degrees (±15 degrees) to support precise tuning across a broad range of settings. It carries a resistance tolerance of ±10%, ensuring predictable response in control circuits. The IP65 rating protects against dust and water splashes in typical manufacturing environments, making it suitable for use on production lines, conveyors, and machine-tool controls where a durable, adjustable control is required. Typical applications include speed or process-variable adjustment, trim or fine-tuning controls in industrial automation, and other panel-mounted user inputs that rely on a 5 kΩ resistance range.
