Dayton 30G489 5000 Ohm Potentiometer
This 30 mm corrosion resistant potentiometer provides 5000 Ohms of resistance with a 2 W power rating. It operates up to 500V AC and 4 mA maximum current. The component suits industrial control panels and machinery requiring precise manual adjustment.
Capacity and headroom for 2 W operation
The 2 W rating handles continuous loads within the 500V AC and 4 mA limits without overheating. The 0 to 100 percent dial plate graduations give fine control across the full range. NEMA 13, 4, 4X enclosure ratings protect against dust, water and oil ingress in harsh environments.
Upgrading from lower rated controls
This unit replaces potentiometers with lower voltage or power ratings where 500V AC and 2 W are required. The NEMA 4X rating upgrades basic open frame types for wash down or outdoor duty. The jump is worth it when corrosion resistance and sealed construction are specified.

Questions about this item
Will the 30 mm body fit the panel cut-out I already have?
The potentiometer body is 30 mm, so match that diameter to your existing cut-out before mounting.
How can I verify the 5000 Ohm track is operating correctly after wiring?
Measure resistance across the outer terminals with a multimeter; it should read 5000 Ohms, then check smooth change from 0 to 100 percent as the shaft turns.
Does the package include a dial plate or knob, or must I source them separately?
The unit comes with a 0 to 100 percent dial plate; a knob is not included and must be purchased separately.
