Classic Range Rotary Switches

Craig & Derricott’s range of Classic Range Rotary Switches are hand operated rotary switches that provide the most cost-effective method of providing complex contact switching functions. However, every item of electrical equipment needs a method of disconnecting it safely from the supply, and here again, the rotary switch with positive break contacts performs that function effectively.

Here at Craig & Derricott we offer four types of Classic Range Rotary Switches: R6, R16, Mini-Rotary & R40, which are available in the following formats:

  • Changeover
  • Cumulative
  • Heaters
  • Metering
  • Motor Control
  • Multi-Position
  • Off / On

R6 & R16 Rotary Switches are built upon a common frame and lend themselves to the more common rotary switch functions such as ‘isolation’ and Ammeter and Voltmeter’ selectors. Due to their small size they are also ideal for the specialist OEM user.

Mini-Rotary Switches are is one of the most versatile items in the rotary switch families. Its design permits the addition of a wide range of accessories. The switch is well proven in arduous conditions, being particularly favoured for Rail applications with its ability to withstand the required ‘shock & vibration’ tests. Control panel manufacturers favour the Mini-rotary switch for its rear facing terminals which can be useful in terminating in confined spaces.

R40 Rotary Switches represents the ultimate in versatility. To this frame size we have added the facility of both 300 & 600 indexing. With excellent switching performance and a high level of mechanical strength, the R40 is the choice for isolation duties.

Our website shows a selection of standard formats, but if your requirement is somewhat different, then please give our technical sales a call, and they will be pleased to discuss your individual requirements.
