Rheostat 600 ohm
Product Code : JA-EE-7529
The Rheostat 600 ohm (SKU JA-EE-7529) is a 600 ohm sliding rheostat for potential divider circuits and fine control of small currents in school and college electricity practicals. This 600 ohm rheostat for college labs uses heavily oxidised resistance wire wound on a vitreous enamel steel tube with die-cast end stands, a nickel-plated heavy-duty sliding contact and 4 mm terminal posts. JaincoLab supplies it with higher and lower values in the same range.
Specifications
The Rheostat 600 ohm offers up to 600 ohm from a winding of heavily oxidised resistance wire on a vitreous enamel steel tube supported on die-cast end stands, with a heavy-duty nickel-plated sliding contact and 4 mm terminal posts for a conventional 4 mm plug; its current rating is confirmed on the quotation.

Applications of the 600 ohm rheostat
At 600 ohm the rheostat is mainly used as a potential divider for a smoothly variable voltage, and in series where only small currents are wanted, for example with galvanometers, sensors, LEDs and transistor circuits in senior-school and college work.
- Potential divider for a smoothly variable voltage
- Small-current control with galvanometers and microammeters
- Setting operating points in transistor and sensor circuits
- Current limiting for LEDs and diodes
- B.Sc and senior-school electricity practicals
