Ohmite RGS500E Wirewound Rheostat

The OHMITE RGS500E is a wirewound rheostat, a type of variable resistor used in a wide range of industrial applications, including motor speed control, volume adjustment, and dimming circuits. These rheostats are known for their durability and precision. They are subject to mechanical wear due to their electro-mechanical nature and have a finite lifespan. Models H, J, G, K, L and N are listed under UL File No. E-10946 and CSA File No. 21309. All rheostats have a 10% tolerance.
