Data Sheet

Rotary switches are available in all different models already existing
for the potentiometers: 6, 9 and 14mm in carbon and cermet
technology. Please, refer to those sections to choose the external
configuration of your switch.
ACP’s Rotary switches are based on the design of the
potentiometers: they have one input and two possible outputs. The
commuting angle between outputs can be customized.
Through-hole and SMD configurations are available. Terminals and
collector are normally manufactured in tinned brass, although versions
with steel terminals are also available under request. Terminals for
through-hole models can be provided straight or crimped, which
helps hold the component to the PCB during soldering. The switch
has Ingress Protection rating type IP 54 (high level of protection
against dust and also against water splashing), according to IEC
60529. Plastic materials can be self-extinguishable according to
UL 94 V-0 under request.
Thumbwheels and shafts can be provided either separately or already
inserted in the switch.
Our switches can be manufactured in a wide range of possibilities
regarding:
- Switching angle.
- Positioning of the wiper (the standard is at 50%).
- Housing and rotor color.
- Mechanical life.
- Pause effect (recommended for each possible circuit position).
- Self-extinguishable plastic parts, according to UL 94 V-0.
Applications
- Dimmers.
- Telecommunications (antenna control).
