Rotary switches are simple mechanical devices which are used to electronically control vast amounts of potential connections via a single input. The 42M36-02-1-06N, produced by the C&K Components Company, is a 12 position rotary switch which is used largely in the audio/video and telecommunications industries.

Applications

Due to its relatively small, yet highly reliable design, the 42M36-02-1-06N is well suited to a wide range of applications, such as switching and routing signals, controlling the volume, power selection, and input/output selection.

Rotary switches are used in all sorts of electronics. In the telecommunications industry, rotary switches are used to connect customers to certain parts of a call centre. In the audio/video industry, they are used to control the volume and to switch between inputs.

The 42M36-02-1-06N is also used in the industrial sector, to control the power of motors and other machines. As its electrical rating is only 3A @125VAC, it can only be used in low-power applications.

Design and Working Principle

The 42M36-02-1-06N is a simple 12-position rotary switch with a unique switching pattern that allows for a high degree of electrical isolation between its contacts. It has a plated steel actuator with a black knob, and is mounted to a rigid plastic mounting box.

The switch is divided into 12 individual sections, each of which can be connected to one of two possible contact points. When the knob is turned, it moves the internal contacts through a series of electrical pathways, thus enabling a specific connection point to be selected.

The 42M36-02-1-06N is a highly reliable switch that is easy to use and maintain. It is able to withstand temperatures ranging from -40 to 85 °C, and has an electrical lifespan of 10,000 cycles. It also has an IP68 waterproof rating, making it suitable for outdoor applications.

Conclusion

The 42M36-02-1-06N rotary switch provides users with reliable and versatile control over a wide variety of applications. Its small size and robust design make it ideal for use in harsh environments, and its electrical lifespan of 10,000 cycles ensures that it will last for years.
