71BF30-01-1-12N-F

Rotary switches are often used when a variable control needs to be implemented. The 71BF30-01-1-12N-F rotary switch is a device used to select one of a number of positions in a circular arrangement. It is a single-pole multi-position switch, with the rotary type being the most common type in use today. It has a minimum of 10 positions and can be fitted with up to 12 contacts. The switch is designed to sustain a maximum current rating of 10A, providing a lasting piece of equipment that is capable of coping with most applications. The contacts of the switch are silver-plated, which provides a reliable connection with low contact resistance.

The 71BF30-01-1-12N-F is typically used in applications such as motors, pumps, and other mechanical machines. It is suitable for providing accurate control of the machine and it can help to extend the life of the machine, as it provides a reliable switching mechanism. It is often used in industrial applications, but it is also becoming increasingly popular in consumer appliances and home automation systems. This type of rotary switch is also suitable for controlling lights, as they provide a simple on/off control with a single rotary turn.

The working principle of the 71BF30-01-1-12N-F rotary switch is relatively simple. When the switch is turned, it causes the contacts to separate or come together. The contacts are held in place by a spring, as the switch is turned, the contact plate is pushed in the opposite direction and makes contact with the switch’s contact. When the switch is turned back, the spring pushes the contact plate back into its original position, and breaks contact. This mechanism allows for a reliable switching operations, as the contacts are not permanently connected or disconnected, the switch is toggled on and off with a single motion of the switch.

In conclusion, the 71BF30-01-1-12N-F rotary switch is a durable and reliable switching component, that is suitable for controlling equipment in a number of different applications. Its spring loaded contacts provide a reliable on/off operation, while its silver plated construction ensures that the contacts remain resistant to oxidation, ensuring a lasting and dependable piece of equipment.
