Technical Specifications

Part of IDEC’s TW Series configurable switch components, the ASW2100 serves as the actuator body for modular switch assemblies. Its momentary action provides temporary circuit control until manually released. The 22.3mm round cutout suits standard industrial panels, while the selector-style actuator enables clear positional feedback. Requires pairing with sold-separately IDEC TW Series contact blocks to complete circuit functionality. Constructed for durability in commercial and light industrial settings.

Typical Applications

• Machinery Start/Stop Controls
• Equipment Mode Selection Panels
• Conveyor System Operator Stations
• Test Bench Instrumentation
• HVAC Control Interfaces

About IDEC

IDEC Corporation stands as a globally recognized innovator in industrial automation and control components since 1945. Renowned for rigorous quality standards, IDEC designs switches, relays, and HMI solutions that meet international safety certifications including UL, CSA, and CE. Their commitment to engineering excellence ensures consistent performance in critical applications.

With manufacturing facilities across three continents, IDEC maintains tight production tolerances and material traceability. The TW Series exemplifies their philosophy of modularity, allowing engineers to create customized control solutions while minimizing inventory complexity. PCX partners directly with IDEC to provide authentic, warrantied components.

About Configurable Switch Bodies

Configurable switch bodies form the mechanical foundation of modular control systems. Unlike pre-assembled switches, these components separate the actuator mechanism from electrical contacts, enabling flexible customization. Users select actuator types (toggle, pushbutton, selector) independently from contact blocks (SPST, DPDT, etc.), optimizing both ergonomics and circuit requirements.

This modular approach significantly reduces long-term maintenance costs. Worn contact blocks can be replaced without removing the entire switch from panels, while standardized cutouts streamline upgrades. Industrial facilities leverage configurable bodies like the ASW2100 to maintain consistent panel layouts while adapting to evolving control logic needs.

FAQs

Q: Does the ASW2100 include electrical contacts?
A: No, this is the actuator body only. You must add compatible IDEC TW Series contact blocks (sold separately) to complete the circuit.

Q: What’s the difference between momentary and maintained selector switches?
A: Momentary switches (like the ASW2100) return to neutral when released. Maintained switches lock into position until manually reset.

Q: Is this switch body rated for outdoor use?
A: While robust, it lacks IP sealing. For outdoor/washdown environments, pair with IDEC’s weatherproof contact blocks and enclosures.

Q: Can I use this with non-IDEC contact blocks?
A: No. The ASW2100 is designed exclusively for mechanical compatibility with IDEC TW Series contacts.

Q: What torque is required for panel mounting?
A: Refer to the IDEC datasheet (available at PCXCo.com/resources) for exact specifications. Avoid overtightening to prevent housing deformation.

Q: Are replacement actuators available?
A: Yes, PCX stocks IDEC-approved selector levers and accessories. Inquire for compatible actuator kits.
