Product Description

Factory Brand New 16A 250VAC / 12A 400VAC 3-loop Position Switch with CE

This is a 3-loop multi-position rotary switch, a medium-power electromechanical switch primarily used in electric heating appliances such as ovens and electric heaters. It switches the on/off state of 3 independent circuits by rotating the operating shaft, achieving power adjustment or function switching.

Working Principle:

I. Rotary Drive: Rotating the metal operating shaft drives the internal insulated cam to rotate.

II. Contact Switching: The cam pushes 3 sets of elastic moving contacts (gold metal pieces in the picture), causing them to engage or disengage with the corresponding stationary contacts, thus independently controlling the on/off state of the 3 circuits.

III. Position Positioning: The internal ratchet structure provides a clear "click" feedback, ensuring the switch stays stably at the selected position and preventing accidental operation.

Application Scenarios:

This switch is primarily used for electric heating appliances requiring multi-circuit and multi-level adjustment:

1) Kitchen Appliances: Electric ovens, electric grills, bread makers, pizza ovens (controlling upper and lower heating elements, hot air circulation, etc.);

2) Heating Equipment: Electric heaters, fan heaters, oil-filled radiators (controlling the combined output of multiple heating elements);

3) Other Appliances: Rice cookers, electric heating plates, built-in cooktops.
