Introduction to Rotary Switches
A rotary switch is an electrical switch that is activated by rotating a control knob or dial to make or break an electrical connection. Rotary switches are commonly used to select a channel on audio and television equipment, or for switching between operational modes of electronic devices such as dimmer switches, circuit breaker switchgear, electronic test equipment, and laboratory equipment.
Uses of Rotary Switches
Rotary switches are especially useful for applications where frequent changes are made between different modes such as in audio and video Equipment. They can also be used in power switching to disconnect power from an appliance or to protect a circuit from overload. In addition to this, rotary switches are used as controllers for switching between modes in computer, industrial, or electromechanical systems.
RTAC32S06M25NS Application Field and Working Principle
RTAC32S06M25NS is a rotary switch manufactured by EKL Components, Inc. It is primarily used in applications such as audio/video equipment, computer peripherals, communications equipment, household appliances, lighting systems, and industrial equipment. The RTAC32S06M25NS rotary switch consists of a single-pole double-throw switch with a positive stop mechanism for positive switching. The body is made of die-cast zinc and plastic actuators, the contacts are silver plated, the terminals are soldered and the locking is a hood lock.
The RTAC32S06M25NS rotary switch works by using a knob and/or lever that is connected to a shaft. When the knob or lever is turned, the shaft also rotates, which in turn moves the contact plate inside the switch. This contact plate is a metal plate with contacts on it, which can physically move the contacts away from each other, thereby disconnecting the circuit and allowing it to be then reconnected depending on which way the switch is turned. Turn the switch in one direction and the contacts close, turn it in the other direction and the contacts open. Depending on the design, the connection between the switch contacts can be form- or break-before-make. In a “Form” configuration, the circuit is connected before it is disconnected, in a “Break-Before-Make” configuration the contact is first opened before making a new connection. This type of switch is usually used in electronic equipment, appliances, motors, and any application where an ON/OFF system is required.
To ensure that the contacts make correct contact with the terminals, an insulation layer is applied on the external surface. Insulation also increases the durability of the switch as it protects it from factors such as dust, dirt and moisture. The insulation material should be able to withstand high temperatures without breaking down in order to protect the contacts inside the switch.
Conclusion
The RTAC32S06M25NS is a rotary switch used in applications such as audio/video equipment, computer peripherals, communications equipment, household appliances, lighting systems and industrial equipment. The switch is composed of a single-pole double-throw switch with a positive stop mechanism which works by using a knob and/or lever connected to a shaft. When this is turned, the shaft rotates, which in turn moves the contact plate inside the switch and allows for connection or disconnection of the circuit. Insulation is also applied to the outside of the switch to prevent any damage or shorting of the contacts inside the switch.
