177617G is a 1 Pole 10-position thumbwheel switch from EECO's 1776 Series featuring 10's complement binary output code with diode provision capability. The switch operates with a tangential operating force of 6-18 ounces and maintains a minimum life of 1,000,000 detents at 10 mA and 5 VDC at +25°C. It features a standard 0.500" width, polycarbonate construction with gold over nickel plating on contacts, and operates reliably across a temperature range of -20°C to +75°C. The switch supports maximum electrical current of 3A per common terminal and maximum rated switching load of 125 mA at 28 VDC or 115 VAC, making it suitable for industrial control panels, instrumentation, and data entry applications requiring binary coded decimal output.
