975

The General Radio 975 Potentiometer Series was introduced in Catalog O (1956) and remained available through Catalog 1973.

The Type 975 is part of the 970 Series of general purpose potentiometers. They are useful for dc, throughout the audio and ultrasonic-frequency ranges. They have the ability to be stacked while using a common ⅜ inch shaft. Stacking requires hardware that's not included. Mounting is by three 6-32 supplied screws. The basic power rating for the Type 975 is 10 watts. The 975 Series replaced the Type 214-A Series of potentiometers. The recommended dial plate is the Type 970-P2.
