6000 Series
Rotary Switches, 6000 Series
Alcoswitch 6000 Series
Rotary Switches are used in
programming electrical and
mechanical circuits in
machine tools, test
equipment, and input data
terminals. These manually
operated switches are
specifically designed to be
mounted on a pc board and
offer output capabilities
which include: 8-position
binary-coded octal (BC),
10-position binary-coded
decimal (BCD), 16-position
hexadecimal plus 10- and
16-position single pole
decimal. All switches feature
a small diameter and very
low profile.

Product Facts
n Compact design — small
diameter, low profile
switches are ideal for pc
board mounting
n Wide choice of outputs:
8-position binary-coded
octal, 10-position binary-
coded decimal, 16-position
hexadecimal and 10- and
16-position single pole
n Versatile application —
styles include slotted,
bar-type and thumbwheel
versions for hand rotation
n Positive switching —
contacts have positive
detent action
In addition to varied output
capabilities, these versatile
Alcoswitch switches can also
be supplied in three different
styles, allowing you to select
the operation method best
suited to your specific
application. One version
incorporates a slot which
accepts a screwdriver, coin or
other similar device. This
particular style permits
operation of the switch
without sacrificing overall
height. Its height of .220
[5.59] above the pc board is
no greater than the usual
board-mounted discrete
components. The other two
versions have either a bar-
type knob or thumbwheel for
their operation. All three
styles can be rotated
bidirectionally.
MATERIALS
Contacts—
Phosphor bronze, gold over nickel plated
Solder Tabs and Pins—
Coded Switches — Beryllium copper, tin plated
Single Pole Switches — Brass, tin plated
Structural Parts — Thermoplastic

n All positions are easily
identified by large readable
characters or dots
n Optimum reliability —
fully enclosed design
protects contacts against
contamination
G
Rugged construction, positive
detent action contacts plus
large, readable characters are
additional features of the
Alcoswitch 6000 Series PC
Board Rotary Switches. All
these features, coupled with a
fully enclosed design for
better environmental
protection, provide excellent
electrical and mechanical
performance.
