RR111C1100

Rocker switches are a type of control switch, typically found in the electrical equipment, sporting goods, and power tools sectors. The RR111C1100 rocker switch is a special version of the commonly used double-throw switch. It can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from lighting control and process automation to medical scanning and gas-oil extraction systems. In this article, we’ll look at the applications and working principles of RR111C1100 rocker switches.

The RR111C1100 rocker switch is a double-throw, single-pole switch, meaning it has two separate positions, with one being the ‘on’ position and the other the ‘off’ position. It features a rocker actuator arm which is moved back and forth to turn the circuit either on or off. The switch is typically used where a switching action is needed, such as in lighting applications, or to control a process. The RR111C1100 is designed to handle currents of 10A and voltages up to 16V AC/DC.

Due to its simple, robust design, the RR111C1100 rocker switch is suitable for a wide range of applications across a variety of sectors. In the automotive and transportation industries, it can be used for in-vehicle audio, vehicle detection systems and traction control systems. In lighting applications, rocker switches are used to switch between different light levels and to turn main lights on or off. In the medical field, they are used to control medical equipment like scans and laboratory devices, while in the oil and gas industry, they are used in control valves and power converters.

The RR111C1100 is also used in home automation and industrial control systems. For example, in home automation systems, they are used to control mains lighting and household appliances. In industrial control systems, they can be used as part of safety circuitry, temperature control, and motor control systems.

The working principle of a rocker switch is quite simple. When the rocker arm is actuated, it turns the circuit on or off by closing or opening the contact points. Depending on the device, there may be several poles and throws. In a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switch, for example, there is one pole and two possible throws – one for ‘on’ and one for ‘off’. The RR111C1100 rocker switch is a single-pole double-throw switch.

The RR111C1100 is an excellent choice for high current and remote switching applications. Its robust design and reliable contacts make it suitable for a wide range of applications across numerous industries. Whether you need to control mains lighting in the home or monitor an oil and gas well, the RR111C1100 rocker switch is a great choice.
