BD242-S

Overview

The Bourns BD242-S is a rotary metal potentiometer from the PDB24 series, designed for panel mount installation. It features a single gang configuration with one turn of rotation and solder lug termination. The component utilizes a carbon resistive element and includes a knurled or serrated shaft without detents. This audio-grade control is part of the Pro Audio product line, intended for precise manual adjustment in electronic circuits.

Feature Summary

Single gang rotary design for standard control applications
Panel mount construction with solder lug connections
Carbon resistive element suitable for audio frequency signals
Knurled shaft profile for secure manual operation

Applications

Audio equipment volume controls
Professional sound mixing consoles
Industrial instrument panel adjustments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against the official datasheet to confirm resistance tolerance and shaft length requirements. Ensure the ordering code matches the exact mechanical dimensions needed for the enclosure cutout. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's current documentation before finalizing procurement specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a durable, single-turn rotary control is required for panel mounting. The carbon element offers a balance of cost and performance for general audio applications. Verify that the solder lug termination type aligns with the available board space and assembly methods.

Part Context

This model belongs to the Bourns PDB24 series of panel controls. The series is characterized by robust metal housings and standardized mounting dimensions. These components are engineered for reliability in professional audio and industrial environments where frequent manual adjustment is necessary.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the PDB24 series that share identical mounting hole patterns and shaft diameters. Ensure any replacement maintains the same electrical resistance value and power rating to preserve circuit functionality.
