Rotary switches, also commonly known as selector switches, are used to electrically control the flow of current in electrical systems. They are generally rotatable shafts with several contact points, connected to a motor or other actuating device. They are usually made up of two main parts – the main body and an actuator.

The 59M18-07A20N rotary switch model is designed for use in a variety of applications, including circuit chopping, reversing and directional control. The switch has a double-pole double-throw (DPDT) configuration, providing up to 20 different contact positions, depending on the model. It is operated by a simple 90-degree turning motion, with the contacts positioned within the sealed housing to ensure weather-proof operation.

The 59M18-07A20N rotary switch is an excellent choice for applications requiring reliable switch operation. The switch hood is designed to protect the contacts from the harsh environment and the spring return ensures that the switch always returns to its original position when the actuator is released. It is also easy to install and requires minimal set-up and maintenance.

In addition to being used in commercial and industrial applications, rotary switches are also commonly used in consumer electronics and devices. They are most often used as volume or channel selectors, as their ease of use and durability make them ideal for this purpose.

The working principle of the 59M18-07A20N rotary switch is simple. When the knob or actuator is turned, the contact points on either side rotate and are connected or disconnected, depending on the relative position. This movement opens or closes the electrical circuit, allowing or preventing current from flowing.

Rotary switches can also be used for a wide range of other functions, such as setting an alarm or controlling the speed of a motor. They are an extremely versatile and reliable switching device, with easily adjustable parameters and attractive designs.

The 59M18-07A20N rotary switch is a great choice for applications requiring reliable and adjustable switching solutions. It offers up to 20 contact positions and provides complete electrical isolation and high current flow, making it a great solution in both industrial and consumer applications.
