NKK Switches announces the availability of the SW3800 Series of high-capacity rocker switches. The series’ robust design and high electrical capacity make it the perfect choice for nearly any heavy duty application.SW3800 Series devices are standard size rocker switches constructed of sturdy, high performance materials that include a steel mounting frame. Additionally, these rockers feature screw terminals made of brass with nickel plating. The actuators are white. Electrical capacity for these rockers, which is particularly high among devices this size, rates at 30A @ 125V AC, 30A @ 250V AC and 30A @ 30V DC for resistive loads; and up to 30A @125V AC and 15A @ 250V AC for inductive loads.The SW3800 Series switches are designed for panel mount applications and are UL Recognized and CSA Certified. They are available in DPST, DPDT, 3PST and 3PDT configurations with all circuits maintained. Mechanical life is rated at 50,000 operations minimum and electrical life is rated at 25,000 operations minimum. The operating temperature range spans -10 degrees to +70 degrees Celsius.Markets for these devices include industrial/commercial, medical, instrumentation, telecommunications and transportation. They are particularly well-suited to heavy duty applications such as generators, welding equipment, pumps, deep fryers and lifts, to name just a few.
