What Are Specialty Switches?

The category of specialty switches encompasses a wide range of light-, medium- and heavy-duty switches for both industrial and residential applications. Examples of specialty switches include:

• – Limit switches
• – AC/DC toggle switches
• – Rotary switches
• – Flushed and raised indicator lights
• – Lever and pull chain switches

While numerous examples of specialty switches exist, limit switches are ideal for electrical engineering and heavy machinery applications. Limit switches can be part of a machine’s control system or act as a safety interlock. They can also count enumerating objects as they pass a certain point in a mechanism. 

Limit switches come with a variety of actuators, including:

• – Nylon wobble stick
• – Lever
• – Spring return
• – Side push rod
• – Wire wobble stick

When to Use Specialty Switches

With so many specialty switch subcategories to choose from, there are countless uses for this versatile piece of equipment. Residential applications include home appliances, ceiling fixtures and fans. However, the majority of uses are for industrial applications. Industrial switches can be for industrial motors, refrigeration units, marine equipment, agricultural machinery, refinery equipment, manufacturing components and more. 

Things to Consider When Buying Specialty Switches

Specialty switches can have unique designs for specific applications. Your requirements and project scope will determine which piece of equipment is best for your purposes. When looking for the perfect replacement switch, you should consider:

• – Power: How much amperage and voltage does your project require?
• – Actuator: Do you need a button, dial, rod, knob or lever? 
• – Circuitry: What type of circuitry and how many circuits does your machine need?
• – Light: Does your application require an illuminated switch?
