895-024-555-503

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 895-024-555-503 is a rotary switch featuring 24 positions and 5 poles, designed for panel mounting applications. It utilizes a non-shorting wiper configuration to ensure distinct circuit isolation between positions. The component employs a brass contact material system to maintain reliable electrical conductivity throughout its operational lifespan. This specific model variant includes a 1/4 inch hex shaft with a keyway for secure torque transmission and precise angular positioning during installation.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Non-shorting wiper design ensures complete circuit isolation between adjacent positions
• Brass contact material provides durable electrical connectivity
• Panel mount construction offers stable mechanical integration

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control panels requiring multi-position switching

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the exact shaft dimensions and keyway specifications against the mechanical drawing before procurement. Confirm that the non-shorting wiper configuration aligns with the required circuit logic. Ensure the panel cutout diameter matches the specified mounting requirements to guarantee proper fitment and structural integrity of the assembly.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when discrete position switching with isolated circuits is required. Consider the brass contact material for standard current loads. Evaluate the 1/4 inch hex shaft with keyway for compatibility with existing drive mechanisms. Assess the 24-position count against the functional requirements of the target application to avoid over-specification or insufficient options.
