Construction Data
3 different Contact Systems are available
CG6 to
CHR16B
CG4 and
CG4-1
CGD4-1 CH11/CHR11
CH12/CHR12
A rigid, double-break bridge with silver
alloy contacts provides high making
and breaking capabilities for regular
control applications.
High contact reliability by multiple
cross-point contacts, CG4 with 1 µ
and CG4-1 with 35 µ gold plating.
High contact reliability by H-bridge design with
“cross-wire“ contacts. The contact system with
gold-plated contacts (CH12/CHR12 with silver
contact) allows for low voltages, electronic
compatible.

Cam switches of the CG, CH and CHR-series are designed
for universal application and may ideally be used for control
switches, instrumentation switches and motor control switches.
Different contact designs, contact materials and terminals
allow the use as well as in electronic circuitry and in aggressive
environments in accordance with IEC 60947-3, EN 60947-3,
VDE 0660 part 107, UL and cUL (cUR).
The stage is the basis for all switches and can be supplied
with a maximum of 2 contacts. All switches of this series are
supplied with open terminals which are accessible while the
switch is installed. The terminals are protected against accidental
finger contact according to VDE 0106 part 100 (VBG 4). Capti
ve
plus-minus terminal screws and integrated screwdriver guides
facilitate wiring. Due to the particular arrangement of the
terminals of the CG switches, it is possible to install the
switches closely, side by side, or to mount them directly at
the cable trays. The contact terminal numbers are easy to
read, even if the switch is installed.
The captive plus-minus screws of the CH and CHR-series
are located about 90° apart from the terminal direction. This
allows for connecting wires without any interference with the
terminal screws.
For connection with ring type terminals the CHR-series were
designed. The switches are supplied with large open termi-
nals. This allows for connection without removing the screws.
