08A36-04-1-02S

Rotary switches are a type of switch used to provide a selection or choice of electrical circuits. The 08A36-04-1-02S rotary switch is a 4 pole, 2 Position double make switch and is typically used in industrial applications, such as the control of lights, motors, and machinery. Its primary purpose is to enable, or disconnect, the electrical connection of two devices in a circuit.

The 08A36-04-1-02S consists of a stationary contact known as the “armature” and a rotatable contact known as the “roller.” The armature contains a series of blades, each blade aligned with a terminal located on the roller. The roller is connected to an electric motor, which causes the roller to rotate and align each terminal with the available blades. As the blades align and the circuit is established, an audible click will sound.

The switch also has a manual override that allows the user to set the switch in the “off” position when the circuit is not needed. This feature includes a plunger and a spring-loaded arm so that when the plunger is pressed, the arm slides up and disengages the roller. This prevents electricity from passing through the switch and allows the user to manually control the switch.

The 08A36-04-1-02S is designed to work with a variety of voltages, from 16 volts up to 600 volts. This switch is also rated for a maximum current of 10 amps, making it suitable for most industrial-grade applications. Furthermore, the 08A36-04-1-02S is tested and approved to meet UL and CSA safety standards, ensuring that the switch is safe and reliable.

The 08A36-04-1-02S is a versatile, reliable switch, capable of providing single pole and double make switching. Its manual override feature allows the user to manually control the switch, while its universal voltage compatibility and UL/CSA ratings ensure safety and reliability. With these features, the 08A36-04-1-02S is an ideal choice for an array of industrial applications.
