Helix part 0522543 is a potentiometer assembly used to control pressure or speed settings on compatible sprayers. This variable resistor allows operators to adjust motor speed, pressure output, or other parameters by turning a control knob, providing precise regulation of spray performance. A worn, erratic, or failed potentiometer can cause pressure fluctuations, loss of control, or inability to adjust settings properly. Replacing with this genuine Helix potentiometer assembly restores precise, reliable adjustment and consistent sprayer performance on Helix FR and VR models.

The 0522543 Potentiometer Assembly is an electronic control component used in Helix FR and VR sprayers to adjust motor speed, pressure output, or other variable parameters. When the operator turns the control knob, the potentiometer changes its resistance value, sending a variable signal to the control board that determines the sprayer's operating level.
This precision component allows for smooth, infinite adjustment between minimum and maximum settings, giving the operator precise control over spray pressure and flow for different coatings and applications. Over time, potentiometers can wear out due to mechanical use, develop dead spots, or fail electronically, leading to erratic behavior, loss of adjustment range, or complete loss of control. Replacing a faulty potentiometer with this genuine Helix assembly restores smooth, accurate control and ensures consistent sprayer performance.
