Cliff Electronics offers control knob options, including customisation
Component manufacturer, Cliff Electronics offers a range of control know for audio, broadcast, instrumentation, medical, lighting and vending applications.
They include rotary control knobs, which are suitable for use with rotary switches, potentiometers or encoders. They are moulded in black nylon, ABS or PP, with or without skirts and some models can be supplied in white or grey colours. Other custom-made colours can be produced, subject to order quantity. Some models can accept optional diamond spun or coloured caps and marker dots are standard on some models. The standard dot or line position is opposite the set screw or “D” flat, and versions are available with push on or screw fixing.
In the K series there are options ranging from the retro-look K4 “chicken head” pointer knobs, to a range of aluminium clad plastic models with a bright aluminium diamond turned finish protected from tarnishing and corrosion. The K85 push fitting round knob has a transparent version for use on illuminated rotary encoders.
Highlights of the series include K21, for use on mixer desks for audio / broadcast applications. It is available in a variety of shaft fittings and cap colours with optional marker line or dot and a removeable coloured cap.
There is also the K87 series which offers a rubberised soft-touch rotary control knob available with or without a moulded colour top and marker line. It is available in a range of colours for use on equipment where colour coding is required.
The K88 range of cost effective, space saving skirt-less knobs can be used in many applications, offering multiple mounting options for different shaft types. Separate caps enable multiple colour and marker line options.
