Rotary switches

How to Order

ACP’s switches (COM) follow the same configuration as the potentiometers, as shown in previous sections of this catalogue. The word COM needs to be added to the description. The cells 5, 6 and 7 (value, taper and tol) are left blank. If the switching angle is different from our standard, then it should be indicated.
Examples:
From CA9: COMCA9MH2,5 2DT SNP PI WT-9005-BA (switch in configuration CA9MH2,5 with 2 detents, terminals with snap in, wiper at CCW position, and white shaft reference 9005 already inserted).

Electric Function

The three terminals of the potentiometer are equivalent to one input (B) and two outputs (A and C), as shown in the figure. The middle terminal (B) corresponds to the internal wiper, which switches between positions. The switching angle can be customized.
Unless otherwise requested, the housing will be neutral color, with the marking in black.
