51KPT30-01-1-12S-F

51KPT30-01-1-12S-F are stand-alone rotary switches typically used in applications requiring electrical performance, precision and reliability. The rotary switch is capable of controlling high voltage and large current with mechanical durability and safety.

A rotary switch is an electric actuator that belongs to an electrical switch family. It is designed to provide a large number of devices with one common control. It is commonly used as a control switch or selector switch which can directly control power by a suitable power supply. These switches are widely used in applications such as AC/DC switching and protection circuits, circuit breakers, relays, burn-in testers, inductive loads, and AC/DC motors.

The working principle of a rotary switch is based on the simple fact that a certain amount of electrical current is required to move a switch. When the rotary switch is turned, it generates a voltage across a pair of contacts. This voltage causes the contacts to move and close the circuit. When the contacts come in contact with each other, current flows through the circuit and other components such as an electric motor will turn or activate. The voltage generated by the rotary switch must be high enough to cause the contacts to move, and low enough for the contacts to remain stable after the switch is turned.

Rotary switches can be very reliable and long-lasting components. They are designed to last for millions of cycles and many years of service life. These switches are also designed to be very tolerant to temperature and vibration, so that they can withstand extreme environmental conditions.

Rotary switches have a wide range of applications. Rotary switches are used in the aerospace, defense, industrial control, and commercial applications, ranging from the simple to the complex. Common applications include AC/DC switching and protection circuits, relays, circuit break of AC/DC motors, and inductive loads.
