Introduction

Rotary switches, also known as rotary encoders, are electromechanical devices that are used for controlling electrical current. They are used for switching circuits and for controlling current flow in a variety of applications. Rotary switches are often used in an industrial setting and allow electrical engineers to accurately control and monitor the movement of various components and instruments. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the 71CF361205S-1205S rotary switch.

Application Field

The 71CF361205S-1205S is a versatile rotary switch which is designed for industrial applications. It is suitable for use in a variety of different industries, including aerospace, automotive, electronics, lighting, medical, and manufacturing. In particular, this type of switch is often used in the control of components and instruments in automation systems, industrial machinery, and surveillance systems.The rotary switch is equipped with a range of features that are designed to ensure a high level of performance and reliability. The switch is available in both single-pole and double-pole versions, and it also has a wide variety of contact configurations and voltage ratings. Its contact materials are silver-plated and securely sealed, ensuring a long life in harsh industrial environments.

Working Principle

The 71CF361205S-1205S rotary switch works by using a rotating mechanism to move the contact terminals, thus allowing current to flow in different directions. The mechanism of the switch consists of a metal contact arm, or armature, and a metal plate, or disc. When the rotary switch is turned, the metal contact arm moves the metal plate, which in turn moves the contact terminals. Depending on the position of the rotary switch, the contact terminals can be arranged in various contact configurations, allowing for different amounts of current to flow.The rotary switch also features an internal spring which is designed to return the rotary switch to its “off” position when it is not in use. This ensures that the circuit is not accidentally left on when the switch is not in use.

Conclusion

The 71CF361205S-1205S rotary switch is a reliable and versatile switch that is ideal for use in a variety of different industrial applications. It is available with a wide range of contact configurations and voltage ratings, enabling it to be used in almost any system. Furthermore, the internal spring ensures that the switch will be properly deactivated when it is not in use.
