SPECIFICATIONS
STANDARD OPTIONS
Electrical Rating
Rated: To make and break the following loads:
1 amp at 115 Vac, resistive; 0.5 amp at 220
Vac resistive; 1/4 amp, 115 Vac inductive; 1/50
amp, 115 Vdc inductive; 1/10 amp, 6 to 28 Vdc
inductive; 1/10 amp, 115 Vdc resistive; 1 amp,
6 to 28 Vdc resistive; to carry 10 amps continuously.
Contact Resistance: 10 milliohms initial. After 25,000 cycles of operation 20 milliohms
maximum.
Insulation Resistance: 50,000 Mohms
minimum initially
Voltage Breakdown: 1,000 Vac, (500 Vac, or
better after most environmental tests).
Life Expectancy: 100,000 mechanical cycles
of operation normally. NOTE: Actual life is
determined by a number of factors, including
electrical loading, rate of rotation, and environment, as well as maximum contact resistance,
minimum insulation resistance, and minimum
voltage breakdown required at the end of life.
Materials and Finishes
Switch Base: Melamine per (MIL-M-14)
ASTM-D-5948
Cover, Stop Washers, Bushing: Brass, tin/
zinc-plated
Contacts: Both shorting and non-shorting
wiping contacts have over 300 grams
contact force.
Retaining Rings, Stop Arms, and Thrust
Washers: Stainless steel
Detent Balls: Steel, nickel-plated
Shafts: Stainless steel, or plastic
Detent: Opposing spring and ball in a hill and
valley raceway.
Detent Springs: Tinned music wire
Terminals (except common): Brass, tin plated.
Rotor Contact: Steel shaft version—phosphor
bronze, silver-plated .0003" minimum. Plastic
shaft version—silver alloy.
Stator (Base) Contact: Brass, silver-plated
.0003" minimum
Common Plate, including Solder Lug or PC
Tab: Brass, silver-plated .0003" minimum
Rotor Mounting Plate: Nylon fabric-based
laminated phenolic per MIL-T-15047
Mounting Nut: Brass, tin/zinc-plated or
stainless steel.
Additional Characteristics
Stop Strength: 12 in-lbs
Rotational Torque: 12 in-ozs
Shaft Flat Orientation: Opposite point of contact (See circuit diagram.)
Environmental: These switches have passed
the following environmental testing: Altitude
and temperature, 100 hour salt spray; Vibration
10 to 500 cps; Shock 30-G; Humidity; Fungus.
PC Mount: PC Switches are furnished with 10
base terminals for mounting purposes.

ORDERING INFORMATION
Switches are single deck, one pole switches of
2 to 10 positions. They have plastic or steel
shaft, with solder lug or PC terminals, with either
shorting or non-shorting contacts (plastic shaft
PC mount in non-shorting only). Ten position
switches have continuous rotation; fixed stop
switch with a metal shaft is available by special
order. Base part numbers are as follows:
Lug style, steel shaft: 24001-X*
Lug style, plastic shaft: 24B36-01-1-X*
PC style, steel shaft: 24878-X*
PC style, plastic shaft: 24P36-01-1-X*
The X is replaced with the number of positions
required (02, 03, etc.) Complete the part number by adding N for non-shorting contacts or S
for shorting contacts.
Available from your local Grayhill Distributor.
