Frequently Asked Questions
What is the contact arrangement on the Licon 14-338?
This unit uses a Form Z (SPDT-DB) double-break contact configuration. It provides two separate circuit breaks across the four screw terminals, switching one normally open and one normally closed isolated path simultaneously.
How does the switch mount to a panel?
The switch secures through a panel hole using the threaded bushing and included hex nut, or directly through the two body holes using transverse screws.
Why buy a single piece here rather than chasing surplus lots?
You receive the exact switch documented here without buying surplus grab-bags or uninspected pulls. Shipping is $8 flat rate, free once your order passes $28, and orders leave our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
Built with the solid snap and heavy brass terminals from an era when industrial controls were made to outlast the machines they operated.
