OMEG POTENTIOMETER CODING
The model type given to our potentiometers is explained on this page and covers both
unswitched and switch potentiometers. Please note that not all options are available in each
potentiometer range.
A unique code, or part number that specifies all the parameters of the potentiometer down to
the specific spindle, is not used due to the bespoke nature of our business, please return to
your previous page where you will find links to an enquiry form for your use.
The format is POTENTIOMETER CODE (/SWITCH CODE) where the switch code is only
added if appropriate.

 Prefix (Potentiometer terminals)
o BR - Bracket (included with printed circuit terminals)

o LA - Long bent and away from the spindle
o LT - Long bent and towards the spindle
o OW - Ordinary wiring (eyelets) - recommended for hand soldering of wires

o XA - Extra long, bent away from the spindle (mainly used with switches)
 Body (Potentiometer quantity and style)
o 2C . . - Dual (stereo) with inner and outer spindles
o 2G . . - Dual (stereo) with one spindle
o 3C . . - Triple (three gang) with inner and outer spindles
o 3G . . - Triple (three gang) with one spindle
