71A30-02-1-03N

Rotary switchers are electromechanical components typically used in power distribution and other applications requiring circuit interconnectivity. They are also known as rotators, rotary switches, and rotary encoders. The 71A30-02-1-03N is a type of rotary switch that uses a series of electrical contacts and levers to achieve switching functionality. The rotating lever makes contact with the switch’s stationary contacts and opens or closes the circuit. The switch is typically installed by wiring color-coded wires to the switch’s screw terminals and connecting the switch to the control circuit.

The 71A30-02-1-03N can be used in many applications, including power distribution, HVAC, and data communications. Its applications include switching between different voltage levels, controlling light fixtures, and controlling industrial machinery. The switch can also be used to control audio systems, in the form of volume and tone controls. Other applications include doorbell systems, fire alarm systems, and elevator control systems.

The 71A30-02-1-03N is a three-pole, single-throw (SPST) rotary switch. The three poles refer to the three contact points, with each contact point drawing power from a source inside the switch. The single throw refers to the single rotation of the switch which opens or closes the circuit. The switch is rated up to 15A, 250VAC and features a black housing with nickel silver contacts.

To operate the 71A30-02-1-03N, the knob is rotated until the desired contact is made. This action makes contact with the corresponding terminal inside the switch and opens or closes the circuit. When the knob is rotated, the corresponding terminals come into contact with the stationary contacts, allowing current to flow. The stationary contacts remain stationary while the knob is being rotated.

When selecting a rotary switch, one of the key considerations is the switch’s current rating. The 71A30-02-1-03N is rated up to 15A, which makes it suitable for many applications. Additionally, the switch is UL certified, which is important for meeting safety requirements. The switch also features a black housing and nickel silver contacts, making it aesthetically pleasing.

The 71A30-02-1-03N is a rugged and reliable rotary switch that provides single-throw switching in applications such as power distribution, HVAC, and data communications. Its three-pole design, current rating, and UL certification make it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications. With its black housing and nickel silver contacts, it is also well-suited for aesthetic considerations.
