Technical Specifications

Marantz SR8015 Slide Switch's Product Introduction

Product Features

 High-Density Six-Pole Design

The Six Pole Double Throw Electrical Slide Switch features six independent channels controlled by one actuator. Its 18-pin layout ensures reliable signal management across multiple circuits, making it perfect for applications such as:

• Professional mixing desks

• 6.35mm audio jack interfaces

• Multi-line data routing

This slider electrical switch simplifies PCB layout while providing precise electrical performance.

 Reliable Electrical Performance

• Rated at 0.3A 50V DC

• Dielectric strength: 500V AC for 1 minute

• Contact resistance ≤30mΩ

• Insulation resistance ≥100MΩ

These specifications ensure clean signal transmission, reduced noise, and high reliability for both analog and digital systems.

 Smooth and Tactile Operation

• Operating force: 400gf ± 100gf

• Travel distance: 2.0mm

The electrical slide switch provides clear tactile feedback, ensuring accurate user operation. The latching mechanism confirms that each channel has successfully switched, enhancing user confidence and system reliability.

 Durable and Long-Life Mechanism

• Minimum mechanical life: 10,000 cycles

• Internal spring mechanisms maintain stable contact across all six poles

This durability makes the switch suitable for repeated use in industrial, professional, and consumer electronics.

 Wide Operating Temperature

• Operating range: -40℃ to +85℃

This ensures stable performance in demanding environments, including high-temperature industrial boards or outdoor audio devices.

Advantages

✔ Multi-Channel Control

The Six Pole Double Throw Electrical Slide Switch allows simultaneous switching of six circuits in perfect mechanical synchronization. This eliminates the need for multiple individual switches, reducing PCB complexity and saving space.

✔ Precise Signal Routing

Ideal for high-density applications, including slide power switch setups, the switch enables clean routing of audio, data, or control signals. It supports balanced signal paths and maintains signal integrity across all channels.

✔ Compact and Space-Saving

The horizontal, through-hole design ensures mechanical stability on densely populated PCBs. Its compact form factor allows integration into professional audio, industrial controllers, or embedded systems without compromising performance.

✔ Reliable User Interface

• Tactile feedback confirms actuation

• Latching mechanism ensures accurate state switching

• Single actuator simplifies user interaction

Whether configured as a slider electrical switch or a slide power switch, it provides an intuitive interface for multi-mode operations.

Operating Principle

1. Actuator Displacement: Moving the slider knob shifts the internal contact across fixed terminals, instantly redirecting multiple circuit paths.

2. Simultaneous Switching: All six poles transition between the two throws in synchronized motion, ensuring consistent signal management.

3. Stable Electrical Contact: Internal springs maintain constant pressure, preventing signal drop, intermittent connections, or unwanted noise.

Applications

The Six Pole Double Throw Electrical Slide Switch is widely used in:

• Professional Audio Equipment: Signal routing in mixing consoles, audio interfaces, and headphone systems.

• Industrial Electronics: Mode selection and control in machinery, instrumentation, and automation devices.

• Consumer Electronics: Multi-line data or signal switching in embedded systems.

• Slide Power Switch Applications: On/off or multi-mode power selection for small electronic modules.

Its compact size, robust construction, and precise operation make it versatile for any system requiring multi-channel control and reliable switching.

Summary

The Six Pole Double Throw Electrical Slide Switch combines precision, durability, and high-density functionality. Whether used as a slider electrical switch, slide power switch, or general electrical slide switch, it provides:

• Multi-channel control with one actuator

• High reliability and signal integrity

• Compact, space-saving design

• Smooth tactile feedback and durable operation

Perfect for professional audio, industrial equipment, and complex PCB applications, this switch simplifies design and enhances system reliability.
