Generalities and recommendations :
A rotary switch is composed of two essential parts:- A part used to distribute electricity, called wafer. One or more wafers can be assembled on the switch (depends on models).
- A mechanical part, which block the wafers in the working position, and/or makes the wished mechanical function (recall, pull and turn...).
Command axis are configurable upon client request. On all our products, the axis length is measured from the bearing face of the switch (or from the internal face of the panel).
It is possible to reduce the length of the threaded barrel to 8 or 6 mm in case of thin pannels.
On some models, manipulation torques can be increased or decreased upon request.
During the wiring of the switch, weld if possible with the exit contacts open. Furthermore, be sure that the wires do not obstruct the moving parts of the switch.
The use of all types of solvents is forbidden, to avoid damaging the switch.
Our products are configurable*, so they are assembled only upon order and client request.
