Honeywell Technologies Toggle Switch, Bushing Mount, On-On, DPDT, Quick Connect Terminal, 28 V dc, 115 V ac

Honeywell TW Series Toggle Switch, 14.61mm Width, DPDT Contact Configuration - 12TW1-3

This toggle switch provides a manually operated method for switching two separate circuits between two positions. Designed for panel mounting via a bushing, it offers dual-pole double-throw functionality in an on-on arrangement suitable for applications requiring changeover control. The device is constructed with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel actuator and accepts quick-connect terminations for rapid installation in industrial environments where moderate ambient temperatures are expected.

Features and Benefits:

• DPDT contact arrangement enables simultaneous switching of two circuits
  Rated for 115V AC switching to support mains control tasks
  28V DC contact rating allows safe operation with low-voltage systems
  Quick-connect terminals permit fast, tool-free wiring changes
  UL listed for adherence to recognised safety assessment
  Operates from -65°C to 71°C for broad environmental tolerance

Applications

• Used for changing signal paths in control panels
  Suitable for industrial machinery control circuits
  Ideal for marine electrical changeover systems
  Can be used for instrumentation and test rigs
  Used with auxiliary power switching in vehicle systems

How is the switch mounted to a panel?

It fits through a bushing hole and secures from the panel front for a compact installation.

What contact configuration does it provide for circuit design?

It provides a double-pole double-throw configuration allowing two independent circuits to be toggled between two outputs.

How are electrical connections terminated?

Conductors attach via quick-connect terminals designed for common crimp receptacles to speed up assembly.

What material is the actuator and why does that matter?

The actuator is stainless steel which offers enhanced durability and corrosion resistance in exposed environments.
