ROTARY SWITCHES
UP TO 3 POSITIONS WITH 3 OPTIONAL, INDEPENDENT LED LIGHT POSITIONS
Used in the heavy equipment, marine, process control and
instrumentation markets, the R2 rotary switch is an excellent
replacement for rocker switches, offering improved visual
position indication, additional lighting options and different styling
opportunities on front panels. The R2 is a sealed, lighted rotary
switch which snaps into a 1.475” x 0.875" industry standard
rocker switch panel opening. The rotary knob snaps onto a shaft
and can be installed by the panel builder for those desiring that
flexibility. The R2 rotary switch provides up to three positions in
all combinations of momentary and maintained action. It is
capable of handling loads from logic level up to 20 amps resistive.
Sealing is to IP68S via a shaft O-ring seal in front and a potted
base in the back. Termination options include 0.250" faston or a
snap-on modular connector. The R2 offers unique lighting options
including up to three independent LED light positions which
illuminate a lens on the rotary knob. This design provides more
lighting options than traditional rocker switches, handles the full
range of electrical loads and is robust enough to survive in the
most demanding applications.
