Nidec Copal S-4000 Rotary Coded Switch

In sophisticated electronic systems, setting parameters with accuracy is crucial. The S-4000 series offers an elegant solution with its subminiature rotary coded mechanism. This switch allows users to select specific binary or hexadecimal codes simply by rotating the actuator. The internal contact system is designed to provide high contact pressure, ensuring that every setting is electronically stable and resistant to the effects of slight mechanical shocks.

One of the standout advantages of the Nidec Copal S-4000 Rotary Coded Switch is its superior build quality. It is housed in a high-performance, heat-resistant resin that maintains structural integrity during wave soldering processes. Furthermore, the switch is designed with a “washable” or wash-through architecture. This allows manufacturers to perform necessary board-level cleaning after soldering to remove flux residues without risking internal damage or signal degradation. Whether used for setting device addresses or configuring hardware parameters, the S-4000 series delivers professional precision in a miniature footprint.

Description

The Nidec Copal S-4000 Rotary Coded Switch is a high-precision, subminiature component designed for reliable circuit configuration in compact electronic devices. This switch features a through-hole mounting design and a robust construction that ensures long-term operational stability in professional-grade hardware.

The Nidec Copal S-4000 series is an ultra-compact, surface-mount rotary coded switch designed for high-density PCB applications. Its extremely small footprint (4.8 mm square) and low profile (2.6 mm height) make it a “go-to” for space-constrained electronics like PLC address settings and robotics.
