*termination
A standard switch uses the entire 360° of each deck as required by the circuitry.
Thus one-sided termination is standard for Series 08, 36°, 1 pole switches with 1
to 5 positions per pole; it is also standard for Series 09, 30°, 1 pole switches with 1
to 6 positions per pole. Two-sided termination is standard for 1 pole switches with
more positions per pole and for switches of 2 or more poles per deck.

Diagrams shown for a two deck switch. Bushing mounting is
recommended for all PC mount rotary switches.
SHAFt AND PANEL SEAL
A shaft and panel seal is available to provide watertight mounting of the Series 08
and 09. Standard and Military Style rotary switches. Sealing is accomplished by
O-ring shaft seal and panel seal washer. When the panel seal is compressed,
dimensions are approximately the same as an unsealed switch. Sealed switches
are provided with a double flat bushing. Non-turn feature can be accomplished by
proper fit of this bushing into panel hole and/or by allowing non-turn tab to extend
into (but not through) panel. Military Style rotary sealed switches do not have a
non-turn tab.

Multi-Deck Rotary Switches
MILItARy QuALIFIED
Series 08 and 09 military switches are qualified
to MIL-DTL-3786/13. They include 30°, 36°, 45°
and 60° angles of throw with solder lug terminals
in sealed and unsealed styles. See front and rear
views at right. Standard variations which do not
affect switch performance can also be marked as
qualified product–contact Grayhill.
The military style is dimensionally the same as
the standard except for the solder lug. Convert
standard style switch drawings to military style
drawings by including this terminal detail and
changing the over-terminal dimensions shown
here. Grayhill can provide complete specification
drawings. Qualified switches can be ordered by
the Grayhill number or the "M" number; they will
be marked per MIL-DTL-3786/13.
Front view shows terminal location of

1/4 amp, 115 Vac resistive; 1/4 amp, 6-28 Vdc
resistive; 20 mA, 115 Vdc resistive; 50 mA, 115
Vac inductive; 20 mA, 28 Vdc inductive; to carry

Contact Resistance:
After 25,000 cycles of
operation, 50 milliohms maximum
Insulation Resistance:

Voltage Breakdown: 1,000 Vac initially
(500 Vac or better after most environmental
tests)
Life Expectancy:
50,000 mechanical cycles
of operation.
Note:
Actual life is determined
by a number of factors, including electrical
loading, rate of rotation and environment, as
well as maximum contact resistance, minimum
insulation resistance and minimum voltage
breakdown required at the end of life.
MIL-DTL-3786.
Contact Resistance:
50 milliohms maximum
after life
Insulation Resistance:
1,000 megaohms
minimum between terminals and shaft
Dielectric Strength:
500 Vac (atmospheric
pressure) and 350 Vac (reduced pressure)
between mutually insulated parts.
The Series 08M and 09M also meet the
requirements of MIL-DTL-3786 SR13 for
moisture resistance, stop strength, rotational
torque, vibration (10 to 2,000 cps), medium and
high shock, salt spray, explosion, thermal shock
(-65°C to 85°C) and terminal pull. When tested
at sea level, 25°C and 68% relative humidity with
failure criteria of 50 milliohms maximum contact
resistance and 500 ac breakdown voltage, these
V
switches will make and break 250 mA at 28 Vdc

Qualified to the following MIL-DtL-3786/13
Circuit Values:
(Also see Standard Style
description.) The Series 08M and 09M have been
tested to meet the requirements of MIL-S-3786,
Style SR13, the majority of which are listed. At
85°C, approximately 68% relative humidity and
sea level pressure, the switches have been
tested to make and break the following loads, as
stated in MIL-DTL-3786/SR13: 125 milliamperes
at 28 Vdc resistive: 75 milliamperes at 115 Vac
resistive.
The switches have also been tested at reduced
barometric pressure (70,000 feet), 25°C at
approximately 68% relative humidity to make
and break the following loads as stated in
MIL-DTL-3786/SR13. 50 milliamperes 28 Vdc
resistive; 20 milliamperes 115 Vac resistive.
When tested to the above loads at the stated
