30mm Selector Switches for Compactor Panels
Replacement 30mm selector switches for industrial trash compactor control panels. 2-position and 3-position rotary selectors for function and mode selection. Drop-in for standard 30mm panel cutouts.
What this page covers
Selector switches let the operator choose between functions — typically running mode (manual vs. automatic), cycle direction (forward vs. reverse), or sub-system selection (which cylinder to actuate). They're rotary switches with a knob handle, distinct from key switches (which use a key) and push buttons (which are momentary).
PRT stocks 30mm selector switches in 2-position and 3-position configurations with standard contact block options.
How to choose
Match by position count, contact arrangement (maintained vs. spring-return), and handle style (standard knob, lever, or guarded).
For multi-position selectors on cycle-critical functions, consider spring-return designs that revert to a safe default position when released.
In stock options
- 2-position selector switchOff/on or A/B function selection.
- 3-position selector switchThree-mode operation.
- Maintained positionHolds selected position until manually changed.
- Spring-returnReturns to a default position when released.
- Standard knob handleMost common operator interface.
- Guarded handlePrevents accidental position change.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a selector switch and a key switch?
Selector switches are knob-operated for function selection. Key switches require a key for authorization. Both can have multiple positions.
Should I choose maintained or spring-return selector switches?
Maintained for mode selection (the switch stays where you put it). Spring-return for momentary functions (the switch returns to default when released).
Are PRT 30mm selector switches OEM-compatible?
Yes. Standard 30mm panel cutout means direct drop-in for Marathon, PTR, Wastequip, Harmony, and SP Industries compactor panels.
How many positions can a 30mm selector switch have?
Standard configurations are 2-position and 3-position. 4-position selectors exist for specialty applications — available on order.
