Rotary Switches

A rotary switch is an electromechanical device which allows the user to select one of a number of possible positions. It works by allowing the electricity to flow through a particular path from an input to an output. A typical rotary switch consists of multiple pins, which in turn connect to the contact points of the rotary switch. When the switch is in an off position, the pins do not make any contact, thus the output remains off. When the switch is in an on position, one of the pins makes contact with the contact point, thus the output is turned on.

56P36-01-1-05N Application Field and Working Principle

The 56P36-01-1-05N rotary switch is a three-position rotary switch suitable for controlling voltage and power. It consists of three primary poles - a common, a start, and a stop. The common pole is grounded and serves as a reference for all three positions. The start pole is in contact with the common pole and is the starting point for current flow. The stop pole is in contact with the start pole and is responsible for cutting off the current when the switch is in the off position.

The working principle of the 56P36-01-1-05N is based upon the use of a cam plate and a three-position handle to control the rotation of the pins when the handle is turned. When the handle is turned in a clockwise direction, the cam plate rests on the start pin and allows current to flow. As the handle is turned further in a counter-clockwise direction, the cam plate comes into contact with the stop pin and shuts off the current. When the handle is turned back to the starting position, the cam plate is returned to the start pin and the current flows again.

The 56P36-01-1-05N switch is suitable for use in a variety of applications such as lighting control, motor control, and audio/video control. Due to its three-position control, it is particularly useful for circuits where a range of operations needs to be achieved with a single control. It is also commonly used in low-voltage and low-current applications such as those found in small electronic appliances.

In conclusion, the 56P36-01-1-05N rotary switch is a versatile and reliable switch for controlling voltage and power. Its three poles are connected in such a way that current flow is only allowed when the handle is in the start position. This makes the switch extremely reliable and allows for a range of operations to be accomplished with a single control. Due to its low-voltage and low-current capabilities, it is suitable for applications such as lighting, motor control, and audio/video control.
