The rocker switch programme - more than 1000 different symbols to choose from!

08-06-2022

Easy-to-use, reliable switches: The HELLA rocker switch range offers the optimum solution for almost any application thanks to a wide range of configuration options for functions and switch symbols. The switches are available in four series – for standard applications (indoors) and for applications with special robustness and waterproofing requirements.

 

The keypoints in short

  • The 3100 modular switch series is waterproof and dustproof in accordance with protection class IP 68 and functions reliably even under extreme operating conditions.
  • The 4100 series with self-cleaning contacts is ideal for safely switching very low currents indoors.
  • The tried-and-tested basic 4570 and 7832 series are suitable for standard applications and simple electrical systems.
  • The range consists of switches for 12 V and 24 V applications.
  • Different types of construction: normally open contacts, changeover contacts, switches with a lock, warning light switches or warning lamps.
  • Different switching functions, snap-in or with a button, various switching circuits and switching stages are available.

Reliable and safe in every situation

It is important that switches are easy to operate and function reliably. Rocker switches from HELLA have green orientation lighting so that the switches can be found reliably in the dark. For safety-relevant applications, there is also an integrated function light in red. This ensures that the switches and the switch position can be detected reliably even at night or when changing between light and dark sections of the road.

 

The lasered symbols have high abrasion resistance

For all series of HELLA's rocker switch range, more than 1000 different switch symbols are available. In addition to a large selection of switches and functions, we offer individualised and abrasion-resistant laser marking in addition to the standard characters, so you can select your own personalised symbols.

 

The switches are modular and can be individually configured to suit customer requirements ─ starting with a single application right through to complete vehicle equipment. The following types are available: on/off switch (0-I), changeover switch (0-I-II, I-0-II), warning light switch and locking switch.

 

The rocker switches are implemented as snap-on fixtures on a pre-determined installation opening either directly or using an installation frame. In addition to individual frames, individually combinable intermediately pieces and end pieces are also available, meaning a modular switch row can be created. The appropriate mating connectors, warning lamps and dismantling tools are available as accessories.

Rocker switch range with four series


HELLA's rocker switch range comprises four series. The 3100 series was developed for robust applications: the switches are waterproof and dustproof in accordance with protection class IP 68 and function absolutely reliably even in extreme conditions. LEDs are used for the lighting. They have a long lifetime and consume very little electricity. The switch symbols are lasered and are therefore abrasion-resistant. The series is ideal for use in agricultural and construction vehicles because of its high degree of reliability in extreme conditions.

 

The 4100 series has a timeless design and is particularly suitable for indoor applications. It is equipped with self-cleaning micro switches. Since the contacts do not become contaminated, even very low currents can be switched safely with this series. The switches are illuminated with LEDs and also have lasered, abrasion-resistant switch symbols. The 4100 series is particularly suitable for modern electrical and electronic systems.

 

The basic 4570 and 7832 series have proven themselves in simple electrical systems for over 20 years. The snap-in symbol discs are available in accordance with DIN or in the customer’s choice of colours. The switches of the series can be illuminated with bulbs or with LEDs, which can be ordered as accessories.

 

The 3100 and 4100 series can be individually configured to customer specifications. At www.hella.com/switch, the switching functions, combinations of symbols and corresponding accessories can be compiled in just a few clicks.
