Product Details | VARIABLE ATTENUATOR
5985-00-509-9857 A device for reducing the strength of an alternating current signal either continuously or in steps, without causing appreciable signal distortion, by maintaining substantially constant output and/or input impedance match. Continuously variable resistive devices must consist of at least two sections or one section with at least two rotating contacts. The item must have an overall attenuation rating. Includes tandem mounted variable resistors designed to function as an attenuator but whose terminals are not connected. See also RESISTOR, VAIABLE (as modified).

What Our Customers Say
Thank you very much for the excellent service and professional customer care.
The service was excellent. I can think of no improvements to date that you can make regarding internet sales.
The representative for WBParts was efficient & handled our request in a timely & professional manner.
Tried two other sources, neither of them responded, was all done online, never spoke to anyone.
The response is quick and the price is often very good. We are completely satisfied.
