The CC concentric shaft versions allies the total flexibility of the P11 modular
system to the advantage of having two separate shafts.

The outer 6 mm or 1/4" or 1/8" dia. shaft drives the modules situated
immediately behind the panel, before the spacer module.

The inner 3 mm or 1/8" or 0.07" dia. shaft drives the modules situated after the
spacer module.

P11 OPTION: SPECIAL LINEARITY - CONFORMITY

• Sealing IP60

The independent linearity (conformity for the non linear laws) is
the maximum gap V between the actual variation curve and the
theorical variation curve the nearest to it. The linearity and the
conformity are expressed in percentage of the total applied
voltage E

They are measured over 90 % of actual electrical travel
(centered).
On request linearity can be guaranteed in linear taper.

ORDERING INFORMATION (First order only)

J123 Independent linearity ± 3 % (linear law)
J145 Independent linearity ± 2 % (linear law)

For other request, contact us.

P11 OPTION: SPECIAL INTERLINEARITY - INTERCONFORMITY

It is the maximum deviation between the actual voltage outputs
of 2 or more pot modules in the same assembly. It is expressed
as a percentage of the total applied voltage, or in dB attenuation.

Interlinearity is measured between 2 pot modules, over 20 to
90 % of the attenuation.

The interlinearity or interconformity is expressed as a
percentage of the total applied voltage:

Or in decibels by comparison between outputs V1 and V2

ORDERING INFORMATION (First order only)
