ALPS ALPINE DPDT Vertical Slide Switch, Through-Hole Mount

The ALPS ALPINE DPDT Vertical Slide Switch is a high-quality, precision-engineered component designed for reliable circuit control in a multitude of electronic applications. Featuring a through-hole mounting style for robust and secure PCB installation, this switch offers a durable construction built for long-term performance.

Its Double-Pole Double-Throw (DPDT) contact configuration provides versatile switching capability, allowing control over two separate circuits simultaneously. The non-shorting (break-before-make) change-over contacts ensure clean signal switching by preventing short circuits during operation, making it ideal for sensitive audio and measurement equipment.

Engineered for endurance, this slide switch boasts an impressive electrical life of 10,000 operations, guaranteeing consistent performance over extended use. It maintains a low contact resistance of just 30mΩ, which minimises power loss and signal degradation for efficient and reliable electrical performance.

With a compact vertical orientation, it is perfectly suited for applications where space is at a premium on the printed circuit board. Its design is well-suited for general industrial controls, audio mixing equipment, and other electronic devices requiring dependable manual switching.

The product's specifications, including its 600mA maximum contact current and 12V DC maximum contact voltage, make it a versatile choice for low-power control circuits. Constructed to meet high-quality standards, this ALPS ALPINE switch is a trusted component for engineers and hobbyists seeking reliable and precise manual switching solutions.
