Datasheet
Rotary switches are available in all different models already existing 
for the potentiometers: 6, 9 and 14mm in carbon and cermet 
technology. Please, refer to those sections to choose the external 
configuration of your switch.
ACP’s Rotary switches are based on the design of the 
potentiometers: they have one input and two possible outputs. The 
commuting angle between outputs can be customized.
Through-hole and SMD configurations are available. Terminals and 
collector are normally manufactured in tinned brass, although versions 
with steel terminals are also available under request. Terminals for 
through-hole models can be provided straight or crimped, which 
helps hold the component to the PCB during soldering. The switch 
has Ingress Protection rating type IP 54 (high level of protection 
against dust and also against water splashing), according to IEC 
60529. Plastic materials can be self-extinguishable according to 
UL 94 V-0 under request.
Thumbwheels and shafts can be provided either separately or already 
inserted in the switch. 
Our switches can be manufactured in a wide range of possibilities 
regarding:
- Switching angle.
- Positioning of the wiper (the standard is at 50%).
- Housing and rotor color.
- Mechanical life.
- Pause effect (recommended for each possible circuit position).
- Self-extinguishable plastic parts, according to UL 94 V-0.
Applications
- Dimmers.   
- Telecommunications (antenna control).
