Rotary switches are a type of switch that is manipulated by rotation and have multiple positions. The 42HS36-05-2-05N is a particular series of rotary switches manufactured by Honeywell, and as such belongs to the family of rotary switches. This article aims to give an overview of the application field and working principle of the 42HS36-05-2-05N.

The 42HS36-05-2-05N is a double-pole, single-throw, four-position rotary switch. This particular switch is produced in a variety of configuration options, such as momentary action, quick-make, and quick-break. These features enable the switch to be adapted to a wide range of applications including test and measurement systems, medical instrumentation, and fire-control systems.

The 42HS36-05-2-05N switch is designed to be extremely reliable and durable. All of its electrical and mechanical components are robust and designed to function over long periods of time in even the harshest and most demanding of environments. The switch is rated for operation with currents up to 30 amps and voltages up to 600 volts. As for environmental protection, the switch is IP-10 rated and meets all relevant UL, CUL, CE, and CSA standards.

The 42HS36-05-2-05N rotary switch has a standard operating force of 0.8 N, and is fitted with a gold-plated contact that is capable of providing a maximum of 200 operations. The switch also has a contact resistance of ≤30mΩ, ensuring all connections remain reliable over the long term. As for temperature, the switch is rated for operation between -40°C and 85°C.

As for the working principle of the 42HS36-05-2-05N, it is comparatively straightforward. The switch utilises a cam-operated, Double Make-One Break mechanisms. This design utilises a cam which turns when the handle is adjusted. One contact remains fixed, while the other, the contact wiper, is moved as the cam is rotated. This contact is shaped like a blade with a number of notches so that it can make multiple connections as it rotates.

The switch has been designed to have four possible positions and the cam is designed to snap into each position after a certain amount of rotation. This snap action is produced by a series of springs and magnets that provide a tactile feedback, making it easier to operate the switch and ensuring that it is pushed into the desired position. The amount of rotation required to move the cam from one position to the next is limited, which makes it easier to ensure the switch is set accurately and to the desired position.

The 42HS36-05-2-05N is a highly durable and reliable piece of equipment and can be used in a variety of applications. Its Double Make-One Break mechanism allows it to make multiple connections as it is adjusted, giving it the versatility to serve different purposes. Its robust mechanical and electrical components make it suitable for operation in even the harshest environments, and its snap action mechanism makes it easier to use and ensures that it is set accurately.
