Rotary switches are a type of electromechanical switch sometimes used to control the electrical connections and functions of a machine or device. Generally, rotary switches use a rotating actuator knob or lever, which contains a series of contact points capable of opening and closing an electrical circuit as the user turns the switch. One such model is the 59HS18-05-1-16N, which is a multi-position rotary switch from C&K that offers excellent performance with notably low contact resistance.

The application field for the 59HS18-05-1-16N rotary switch is primarily for mission-critical communications in applications such as telecom, military, aerospace, industrial, energy and automation. It is suitable for switching high-frequency signals and comes with a current carrying capacity of 6 A (HD) and a switching current of 3A at 48V DC.

The working principle for the 59HS18-05-1-16N switch is based on a simple concept where a rotating cam, lever or crank is used to turn on or off electrical circuits. When the switch is in the “off” position, the contact points are in an open position and do not allow electricity to flow. When the switch is in the “on” position, the contact points are closed and permit a low resistance path for the electrical current to flow. In the case of this C&K multi-position switch, there are sixteen positions in which the switch can be set.

The 59HS18-05-1-16N is an especially reliable switch due its gold-plated contacts and low contact resistance (10mΩ max). It also features an enclosed housing and sealed actuator to further protect against corrosion and external contaminants. It also offers a wide variety of mounting styles and accessories, so that it can be adapted to almost any application.

In terms of electrical ratings, the 59HS18-05-1-16N has a switching voltage of 250V AC, a dielectric strength of 1kV AC between circuits, a contact-to-contact voltage of 500V DC and an operating temperature range of -25°C to +85°C. For safety, the switch is also UL, CUL and ENEC certified.

C&K’s 59HS18-05-1-16N rotary switch is a reliable, low contact-resistance switch with several options for mounting and customizing. It is especially suitable for use in mission-critical communications, where reliability and performance are paramount. It is a popular choice for aerospace, military, telecom, energy and industrial applications.
