Product Description
Renew RX series basic switches are designed for direct current circuits, which incorporate a small permanent magnet in the contact mechanism to deflect the arc and effectively extinguish it. They have the same shape and mounting procedures as the RZ series basic switch. A wide selection of integral actuators is available to accommodate to various switch applications.
