LOCATING PEGS
(Anti-Rotation Lug)
The locating peg is provided by a plate mounted on the bushing
and positioned by the module sides. Four set positions are
available, clock face orientation: 12, 3, 6, 9.
All 148, 149 bushings have a double flat. When panel mounting
holes have been punched accordingly, an anti-rotation lug is not
necessary.

RSID OPTION: ROTARY SWITCH MODULES
• Rotary switches
• Current up to 2 A
• SPDT: Single pole, changeover switch in CCW position - 3 pins
• Sealing IP60
MODULES: RS ON/OFF SWITCH
RSI CHANGEOVER SWITCH
The position of each module is free.
RS and RSI rotary switches are housed in a standard 148, 149
module size 12.7 mm x 12.7 mm x 5.08 mm (0.5" x 0.5" x 0.2").
They have the same terminal styles as the assembled electrical
modules.
An assembly can comprise 1 or more switch modules.
Switch actuation is described as seen from the shaft end.
D:means actuation in maximum CCW position
The switch actuation travel is 25° with a total mechanical travel of
300° ± 5° and electrical travel of electrical modules is 238° ± 10°.
RSID SINGLE POLE CHANGEOVER
In full CCW position, the contact is made between 3 and 2 and
open between 3 and 1. Switch actuation (CW direction) reverses
these positions.
