Product Details

  I. Product Overview

The IDEC ASLW31620A is an illuminated selector switch manufactured by Japanese IDEC Corporation, part of the TW series φ22mm NEMA style control devices, with a mounting hole size of φ22mm. This selector switch is equipped with an illuminated operator, combining circuit switching and status indication functions, widely used in control circuits of industrial control panels, control cabinets and machinery.

The TW series is IDEC's classic φ22mm control device series, featuring an integrated Heavy Type design emphasizing environmental resistance, equipped with a corrosion-resistant octagonal chrome-plated locking bezel, with a robust and durable appearance. The contacts adopt a slow-make, double-break structure, with reliable contact and strong breaking capacity. The panel protection rating reaches NEMA Type 4X and IP65, with excellent water, oil and dust resistance, suitable for harsh industrial environments such as humidity, dust and oil.

The ASLW31620A illuminated selector switch is equipped with an LED or incandescent illuminated operator, with illumination color and rated voltage determined by the model suffix code. The operator is a knob-type selector switch, which switches contact states by rotating the knob to achieve circuit on/off control and mode selection. The illumination function can indicate the switch's working status or power status in real time, facilitating operator identification and monitoring. The product features a modular design, with contact units that can be freely combined according to requirements, and convenient installation and maintenance. This selector switch has passed multiple international certifications such as UL, c-UL and CE, complying with NEMA and IEC related standards, serving as a reliable choice in the industrial control field.

VII. FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between ASLW series and ASW series?

A: The ASLW series is an illuminated selector switch, with an illuminated operator that can indicate switch status or power status; the ASW series is a non-illuminated selector switch, without illumination on the operator. Both belong to the TW series φ22mm control devices, with basically the same mounting dimensions, contact structure, protection rating, etc. The main difference is whether they have illumination function.

Q2: Can the contacts of this selector switch be replaced or expanded?

A: The TW series features a modular design, with contact units as independent components that can be replaced or expanded according to requirements. Contact units are available in multiple contact configurations (1NO, 1NC, 1NO-1NC, 2NO, 2NC, etc.), installed on the switch body by snap-in method. However, the specific number and type of configurable contacts need to be determined based on the switch body model and number of positions. It is recommended to refer to the IDEC official selection manual or contact via email for confirmation.

Q3: How to determine the illumination voltage and color?

A: The illumination voltage and color are determined by the model suffix code. The suffix "A" in ASLW31620A corresponds to a specific combination of illumination color and voltage. The IDEC TW series offers multiple illumination voltages (6V, 24V, 110V, 220V AC/DC, etc.) and illumination colors (red, green, yellow, white, blue, amber, etc.). To confirm the specific illumination voltage and color of this model, please contact via email for confirmation, and we will verify the detailed configuration for you.

Q4: Can you provide detailed configuration and selection support for this model?

A: Yes. Please contact via email with your application requirements, including number of positions, operation method (momentary/maintained), contact configuration, illumination voltage, illumination color, panel thickness, certification requirements, etc. We will provide corresponding detailed configuration analysis, selection recommendations, mounting dimension drawings and technical support.
