It requires approximately 3" of space behind the display panel and mounts via two screws into the front panel. Interconnection is provided via wire leads or solder terminals. Specs include a voltage rating of 30 Vdc or 120 Vac, current ratings of 2A resistive and 0.5A inductive, and a standard potentiometer resistance of 10 kΩ +10% with others available upon request.
