6000 Series
Rotary Switches, 6000 Series
6000 Series
Alcoswitch 6000 Series
Rotary Switches are used in
programming electrical and
mechanical circuits in
machine tools, test
equipment, and input data
terminals. These manually
operated switches are
specifically designed to be
mounted on a pc board and
offer output capabilities
which include: 8-position
binary-coded octal (BC),
10-position binary-coded
decimal (BCD), 16-position
hexadecimal plus 10- and
16-position single pole
decimal. All switches feature
a small diameter and very
low profile.
In addition to varied output
capabilities, these versatile
Alcoswitch switches can also
be supplied in three different
styles, allowing you to select
the operation method best
suited to your specific
application. One version
incorporates a slot which
accepts a screwdriver, coin or
other similar device. This
particular style permits
operation of the switch
without sacrificing overall
height. Its height of .220
[5.59] above the pc board is
no greater than the usual
board-mounted discrete
components. The other two
versions have either a bar-
type knob or thumbwheel for
their operation. All three
styles can be rotated
bidirectionally.
Rugged construction, positive
detent action contacts plus
large, readable characters are
additional features of the
Alcoswitch 6000 Series PC
Board Rotary Switches. All
these features, coupled with a
fully enclosed design for
better environmental
protection, provide excellent
electrical and mechanical
performance.
Product Facts
nCompact design — small
diameter, low profile
switches are ideal for pc
board mounting
nWide choice of outputs:
8-position binary-coded
octal, 10-position binary-
coded decimal, 16-position
hexadecimal and 10- and
16-position single pole
nVersatile application —
styles include slotted,
bar-type and thumbwheel
versions for hand rotation
nPositive switching —
contacts have positive
detent action
nAll positions are easily
identified by large readable
characters or dots
nOptimum reliability —
fully enclosed design
protects contacts against
contamination

3100 Series
3100 Series Rotary Switches
Alcoswitch Rotary Switches
provide a highly reliable
means of manually
programming various types
of electronic equipment. They
are specifically designed for
logic level circuitry, but are
capable of controlling
electrical circuits that operate
at current ratings of 2
amperes, 115 VAC
(nonswitching) and up to 125
milliamperes, 115 VAC
(switching).
Positive detent action, with a
quick make/break operation,
is provided by durable
stainless steel balls and
springs as well as the detents
which form an integral part of
the housing. All contact
surfaces are fully enclosed
within the housing, thus
greatly reducing operational
failures due to dirty contacts.
The contacts are made of
phosphor bronze with gold-
over-nickel plating.
Alcoswitch Rotary Switches
can be supplied with a variety
of options to afford complete
application versatility and
adaptability. Output codes
include decimal, BCD and
BCD complement with 10,
12, 16, 24 and 32 switching
positions.
Interconnection of switches
may be achieved by the use
of AMPMODU receptacles.
Stops supplied with the
switches may be customer
installed when it is desired to
limit rotation to less than
360°.
Product Facts
nCode flexibility — switch
output capabilities include
decimal, BCD and BCD
complement, and various
other codes
nPositive switching —
positive detent action of
stainless steel detent
balls and springs assures
error-free operation
nEnclosed contacts —
contact surfaces are better
protected against dirt, dust
and other environmental
hazards
