NKK Switches, a leading designer and manufacturer of
innovative electromechanical switches, introduces the HS16 Series of standard
size rotary switches. The HS16 Series offers engineers the versatility of
multiple pole configurations, among other options.
HS16 Series switches are available in single pole through
six pole configurations. Multiple poles are achieved by stacking decks; these
devices are available in shorting (make before break) or non-shorting (break
before make contacts) models.
With a diameter of 65 mm, these rotary switches have 30
degree indexing. Engineers can choose to use the HS16 series in two through 11
positions depending on the needs of the application.
Rated up to 12 A @ 125 VAC or 6 A @ 250 VAC, the HS16
Series’ mechanical life is 15,000 operations minimum and electrical life is
7,500 operations minimum. The operating temperature range is -10 to 70°C.
Terminals are solder lug and made of phosphor bronze material. The HS16 series
is cULus Recognized.
