A6C/A6CV
Rotay DIP Switch
Internally Sealed DIL-IC Type Rotary DIP
Switch
● A precise rotary cam and contact driving mechanism achieve compactness for high-density
mounting.
● Top/Side-actuated models available.
● Insert-molded terminals and an O-ring sealed
rotor combine to form a sealed structure
equivalent to IP64 (IEC-60529) to prevent flux
penetration and provides high contact reliability
even in dusty locations.
● Offset between terminal pins and side of case
allows simple circuit inspection.
RoHS Compliant
