Multicomp Pro R13 Series SPDT Panel Mount Slide Switch

The Multicomp Pro R13 Series SPDT Panel Mount Slide Switch is a reliable, heavy-duty component designed for industrial control applications. This single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switch offers a simple On-Off operation, making it an essential part of equipment control panels, machinery interfaces, and custom electronic projects. Its panel-mount design ensures secure and straightforward installation directly into an enclosure or dashboard, providing a robust user interface.

Engineered for performance, the switch boasts excellent electrical characteristics. It features a very low maximum contact resistance of 50mΩ, ensuring efficient power transfer and minimal voltage drop. The high minimum insulation resistance of 100MΩ at 500VDC and a dielectric strength of 1500VAC for one minute provide superior safety and reliability, making it suitable for demanding environments where electrical integrity is critical. The switch is designed for vertical orientation only, which should be considered during the panel layout and installation process.

With a maximum contact current rating of 16A at 125V AC, this slide switch is capable of handling significant electrical loads, perfect for controlling motors, heaters, lighting circuits, or other industrial equipment. Its compact dimensions allow it to be used in space-constrained panels without sacrificing capability.
