RBP12112SCFG

A rotary switch is an electrical device commonly used to select from multiple options by rotating an external knob or shaft. A rotary switch may plug into a number of different electrical applications for control and communication. RBP12112SCFG is a rotary switch, as well as its application field and working principle.

RBP12112SCFG is a two-pole, two-position rotary switch with a right angle actuator. This switch is designed for stable electrical performance and solder dip coating process. With a miniature design and PCB terminals, it’s ideal for telecom and other low profile applications. It has a current rating of 16A up to 24V AC/DC and a dielectric strength of 4000VRMS.

The RBP12112SCFG’s application field is mainly electrical communication, office automation, instrumentation, telecom and industrial control products. Typical applications include data transfer for communication systems, audio-visual signal routing, power distribution, and signal selection for measuring instruments. It can also be used to control signal and power relays.

The working principle of RBP12112SCFG rotary switch is relatively simple. It features a patented switch unit, with a housing and a pair of moving contacts that can be operated by a rotating shaft or knob. When the shaft is turned, the contacts move along with it, severing the connection between them. This action opens the circuit, thereby disconnecting the current flow, and opens the connection to other contacts.

The RBP12112SCFG rotary switch is a good choice for those seeking a reliable, cost effective solution for various switching requirements. Its miniature design, complete solder dip coating process, and PCB terminals make it an ideal solution for telecom and office automation applications, while its dielectric strength and current rating make it suitable for industrial control and instrumentation requirements.
