Rotary Switches

A rotary switch is an electrical switch consisting of a rotating contact that makes contact with different contacts as it rotates. It is most commonly used in applications where multiple switches are required to control a single circuit. In some applications, such as lighting control systems, rotary switches can provide multiple functions with a single switch. The use of rotary switches dates back to the early days of power distribution. Rotary switches are used in a wide variety of applications, including home and office lighting control, vehicle starters, medical equipment, industrial process control, and professional audio.

71B36-12-1-10S-F Application Field and Working Principle

The 71B36-12-1-10S-F is a rotary switch designed for use in a variety of applications, including:

• Lighting control systems
• Motor starters
• Medical equipment
• Industrial process control
• Professional audio systems
• HVAC control systems

The 71B36-12-1-10S-F is a three-position switch with a maximum current rating of 45A. The switch is constructed of anodized aluminum alloy and is UL listed. The switch has multiple contacts to provide different functions, depending on the position of the knob.

The 71B36-12-1-10S-F rotary switch works by having the internal mechanism of the switch turning the movable contacts inside the switch body. The rotary switch has multiple contacts, each with a different electrical connection. As the knob is rotated, the movable contact makes contact with a different stationary contact in a different location. Depending on the application, each of these contacts can be used to control different functions in the circuit.

The 71B36-12-1-10S-F rotary switch is designed for indoor use and is not rated for use in damp or wet environments. In applications where the switch is exposed to moisture, a waterproof version of the switch is available. The rotation of the knobs should be limited to no more than 45° to prevent damage to the internal mechanisms.

The 71B36-12-1-10S-F is a reliable and durable switch and is suitable for a wide variety of applications. It can be used to provide multiple functions in one switch and is a suitable choice for lighting control systems and other control applications. It is important to check the voltage and current rating of the switch before using it to ensure it is suitable for the application.
