Rotary Switches

42MBG36-01B08N is a type of rotary switch which is usually used in applications where multiple connections and frequent changes of connections of electrical and electronic circuits are needed. It is a form of electrical switch whose output is determined by its physical position; that is, its position as determined by the rotational movement of its actuator. Specifically, it is a type of selector switch rotary type.

Operating Principle

The basic principle of operation in a rotary switch is that each switch terminal is connected to a different position of the rotary actuator. As the actuator is moved to a new position, contact is made between the actuator and any contact or contacts mounted at that position. If several contacts are mounted at that position, then all of them are simultaneously connected. By changing the actuator’s position, different combinations of contacts can be made.

Application Field

The 42MBG36-01B08N rotary switch is widely used in a broad range of applications such as electronic circuits, automotive circuity, control apparatus, and test and measurement instruments, among others. It is used as a relay in which each position of the switch may be connected to a different connection circuit. The switch also can be used to change electrical paths in electromagnetic buzzers, relays, and other devices.

The use of rotary switches has been declining in recent years with the increased availability of semiconductor based devices and other types of switches that can be used instead. However, these switches still remain popular in applications where small size and high reliability is desired.

Summary

The 42MBG36-01B08N is a type of rotary switch used for making and breaking electrical connections in a variety of applications. It works on the principle that as the actuator is moved to a new position, contact is made between the actuator and any contact or contacts mounted at that position. It is widely used in applications such as electronic circuits, automotive circuity, control apparatus, and test and measurement instruments, among others.
