DK/EK-Series Heavy Duty Toggle Switches
The switch that can handle your heavy duty requirements.
Single or double pole with wire lead or screw terminations,
and ratings to 20A 125V 10A 250V, the ac/dc DK/EK-Series
is the most heavy duty toggle switch in the Carling line. Its
sturdy metal construction and stiff actuation force will with-
stand the abuses of virtually any stringent application. The
quick make/quick break contact mechanism is ideal for
high voltage DC applications. The DK/EK-Series has long
been a staple of the Industrial Motor control and General
Purpose market segments.
