Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. This is an electric component usually soldered to a printed wiring board (PWB) in electronic circuits. A potentiometer is a variable resistor. It usually is a three-terminal resistor with a sliding contact in the centre. If all three terminals are used it can act as a voltage divider. Potentiometers are usually used to control the level of analog signals such as for volume control in audio equipment. For this product it is assumed that a typical potentiometer in electronic module has an average weight of 6.1 g. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity. The reference product amount is 1.
