Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How are selector switches installed?
A. Selector switches are mounted on control panels by connecting the terminals of the switch to the necessary parts of the panels.
Q. Are there any safety considerations when using selector switches?
A. Yes, proper labelling and colour-coding of selector switches are important to prevent operator errors.
Q. What is the significance of colour-coding selector switches?
A. Color-coding selector switches give operators visual cues that enable them to quickly recognise the function or mode connected to each position, decreasing error probability and enhancing system efficiency & safety.
Q. What is the difference between momentary and maintained selector switches?
A. A momentary selector switch returns to its default position when released by the user. A maintained selector switch stays in the selected position until manually switched back, making it suitable for functions that need to remain active until explicitly changed.
Q. Can this switch replace a 3-position switch?
A. This is a 2-position switch and cannot replace a 3-position unit. However, if you are looking for a replacement to your 3-position switch, check out the brand's 30G273 3-position selector switch.
