44H45-02-2-04S

Rotary switches, like other electrical switches, control the flow of current in a circuit. The 44H45-02-2-04S rotary switch is an electromechanical switch that can be used to open and close electrical circuits. It is a selector switch and can be used to change the connection in either a single pole or multiple pole arrangement. This type of switch is typically used in applications such as switched electrical receptacles and in changing the direction of motor rotation.

The 44H45-02-2-04S has a two-position wheel, with two circuits that can be connected together, either to the common terminal or to one terminal each, depending on the setting of the wheel. The wheel is retained in the housing by a brass pin, and the electrical contacts are made by a brush connected to the wheel and then to the simple one-way continuity switch. As the wheel is rotated the switching action is initiated, and an electrical circuit is cut or made.

When the switch is placed in the single-pole configuration, the wheel must be turned either right or left to the set point; then the circuit is cut or made depending on the position of the wheel. In the multiple pole configuration, a series of poles is connected in parallel, and the wheel must be turned to the set point to provide the desired connections. The switch can be used to control lights, motors, electric tools, and other electrical devices.

The 44H45-02-2-04S has a simple, cost effective, and reliable design and construction, making it ideal for a variety of applications. It is ideal for applications such as switches for control cabinets, industrial control, telecommunications, and instrumentation. The switch is built to withstand the rigors of continuous usage and can be used in both indoor and outdoor environments.

The rotary switch is easy to install and use, and the design ensures that it will remain reliable long into the future. The switch also has a low profile, making it ideal for installation in tight spaces. Additionally, the switch is resistant to dust, moisture, and mechanical stress, making it suitable for use in harsh environments. The availability of different contacts and actuators also makes the switch applicable to a wide range of applications.

In summary, the 44H45-02-2-04S rotary switch is an effective, cost-efficient, and reliable electromechanical switch. It can be used to open and close electrical circuits in either a single pole or multiple pole arrangement, and can be used to change the direction of motor rotation. It is ideal for applications such as switches for control cabinets, industrial control, telecommunications, and instrumentation and is built to withstand the rigors of continuous usage in both indoor and outdoor environments.
