Horsepower ratings are 1 HP at 125VAC and 2 HP at 250VAC. Previous versions of the GP series were UL-rated to 15 amps.The GP series is housed in a phenolic case measuring approximately 1.9”L X 0.9”H X 0.7”W. Cherry offers 13 different standard actuator styles, including nickel-plated steel levers, rollers and buttons. Brass screw terminals and copper alloy solder terminals are standard. Temperature rating is –20°C to +85°C. Initial contact resistance is .015 ohms max, and insulation resistance is 100 mega ohms min at 500VDC. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
