Product catalog summary
Overview: The DIL switch "-16" series is designed to address issues associated with standard dual in-line 8-way switches. Key features include a guaranteed one out of eight selection, linked changeovers operated by a single actuator, and a variety of switching configurations with user PCB customization capabilities. The switches are equipped with large numerals, colored actuators, and are sealed for flow soldering and washing.
Specifications: The switches have a contact rating of 30V, 250mA, and 7.5VA max for switching, and 240Vac, 2A for non-switching. Initial contact resistance is typically 18mΩ, with a maximum of 30mΩ. The switches are designed to operate within a temperature range of -55˚C to +85˚C and can withstand humidity as per BS 2011 Test Ca for 56 days.
Performance and Reliability: The switches are rated for 1000 cycles within the rated load, with test reports available. Users are encouraged to contact the company for specific reliability information as performance can vary based on numerous factors.
Design Considerations: The leaflet includes various electrical schematics for linked and unlinked styles, with specific models like DS16C and DS16D. Some styles, marked with an asterisk, have sliders with unrestricted travel and should be designed and used with care.
Contact Information: For further inquiries or volume requirements for product variants not listed, contact details are provided for the company located in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, England.
