Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and details for rotary coded switches, available in BCD (10 position) and Hexadecimal (16 position) formats, with real and complementary codes. These switches are fully sealed, suitable for flow soldering and solvent cleaning, and feature a black polyamide casing with bold white characters.
Specifications: The switches offer a choice of low profile screwdriver-operated, knurled knob, or large easy-to-operate color-coded knobs. They have gold-plated wiping contacts for reliable low-level switching. Contact ratings include a maximum of 30V switched and 100Vrms non-switching, with a current capacity of 125mA at 85˚C max. Contact resistance is checked at 100mΩ max, with reliability tested over 20,000 detent steps and 240 hours of storage at 85˚C.
Performance Data: The contact life reliability analysis shows over 99.998% of results under 100mΩ, with no contact resistance exceeding 20Ω. Insulation resistance is 1,000 MΩ min at 240Vdc, and dielectric strength is 250Vrms for 1 minute. The environmental temperature category ranges from -55˚C to +85˚C, with a climate category of 55/85/10 for storage and use. Vibration resistance is specified at 10-200Hz with shock resistance up to 50g, 11ms.
Product Variants: The document lists various product codes for different configurations, including flat type (screwdriver operation), large knob style, and indicator type switches. Each variant is available in real and complementary codes, with options for different knob colors (red, green, blue).
Additional Information: The document notes that the information is subject to change and invites users to contact the company for specific reliability data. It also mentions that the switches are manufactured to specification in Japan and provides a drilling matrix for installation.
