Bourns 3610S-1-103 Ten-Turn Knob Potentiometer

The Bourns 3610S-1-103 Ten-Turn Knobpot Potentiometer is a panel-mount, 10-turn, 10 kΩ, wirewound potentiometer with a knob actuator and a 1.5 W rating. This single-gang knobpot delivers a linear taper and ±5% resistance tolerance, making it ideal for precise, repeatable adjustments in compact panel layouts. Termination uses solder hooks for straightforward soldering to a PCB or wiring harness, and the knob-style dial provides easy readability with a dedicated knob for manual adjustment. The 3610 family, including 3610S-1-102 (1 kΩ) and 3610S-1-502 (5 kΩ) variants, shares the same 10-turn, knobpot design, with the -103 suffix specifying 10 kΩ. Bourns emphasizes the panel-mount design with snap-in mounting and a shallow depth behind the panel, typically extending about 5/8 inch, which helps conserve chassis depth in space-limited equipment.
