C&K Components has released its smallest diameter rotary switch series providing design engineers with a switch option that reduces board space by 50%. Available with two to eight positions, the new RM Series single-pole rotary switches feature an ultra-miniature 9.2 mm body diameter and gold-plated contacts for reliable operation.
Ideal for use in next-generation building automation systems, including lighting and fan controls, test and measurement equipment, and telecommunication and radio systems, the new RM Series rotary switches deliver economical subminiature solutions for applications that require reliable multiple-position switches with positive detents that provide tactile feedback.
Available as a single-pole rotary switch with two to eight positions, the new space-saving RM Series switches are equipped with either an extended shaft with one of two standard knob options, or a flush actuator with a screwdriver slot for adjustment. Gold-plated contacts provide reliable switch operating lifespans of 2,000 cycles, with operating force of 270+/-100gf cm.
RM Series contacts are rated for 0.5 A at 24 VDC and 0.2 A at 48 VDC, with insulation resistance of 100 MΩ at 500 VDC, and dielectric strength of 500 VAC for one minute. Operating temperature for the series spans -40° to 85° C, and RM Series switches also feature insert molded terminals to prevent contamination during soldering.
RM Series switches are available from C&K’s extensive global sales and distribution network. Samples are available immediately, and production volumes are available with 4-week lead times.
