Quick Reference Guide
AW Series Switches
The AW Series toggle switch features many circuit configurations, including SPST, SPDT, DPST, DPDT and
4PDT, with a choice of momentary or maintained circuits. The switch provides superior switching power
through brass silver alloy contacts. This toggle is UL, CSA recognized for 20A at 30VDC and 20A at
250VAC. Electrical life is 20,000 cycles at full load. Other electrical parameters include contact resistance
of 10 milliohms max., insulation resistance of 1,000 megohms and actuation force of 29.4 N max.
The AW Series switches have .250 quick connect terminals and all are panel mountable with 12 mm
threaded bushing which is brass with chrome plating. The series mounting design conforms to standard
panel cut outs, easing the task of installation.
