In fact, there are still many electrical equipment equipped with rotary switches, such as desktop electric fans, ceiling fans, range hoods and other electrical appliances have rotary switches. Electronic products using rotary switches have the advantages of high efficiency, simple structure and convenient use, which also provide great convenience for our life. Electric fan is a representative household appliance. The use effect of fan rotary switch is very good. Next, I will introduce the principle and maintenance method of electric fan rotary switch.


Circulating fan rotary switch RT02 Series

1Principle of fan rotary switch:

Change the duty cycle of the output square wave to adjust the average current power on the load to change between 0-100%, and thus change the load and light brightness / motor speed. Pulse width modulation (PWM) is used to realize dimming and speed regulation. For example, when 50% of the square wave is output, the output energy power of the pulse width modulation (PWM) circuit is also 50%, while the power supply must provide more than 71% of the output power, of which 21% is consumed in the voltage drop and heat consumption of the resistance. The resistor consumes most of the energy, and the rest is the output energy, so the conversion efficiency is very low.

2 Maintenance method of rotary switch of fan:

1. When checking the rotary switch, first check whether the connection between the rotary switch and each wire is good, and then check whether the return spring force of the rotary switch fails.

2. If there is desoldering or false welding between the rotary switch and the conductor, use an electric soldering iron to re weld; If the elastic force of the return spring fails, it is necessary to replace the return spring with the same elastic force. In order to replace the new return spring, and after the replacement, the fixing rod shall be reinforced again to prevent the spring from being fixed firmly and falling off easily after the replacement of the new return spring.

3. Check whether the control knob of fan rotary switch is worn. If the control knob is worn, just replace it. Then disassemble the speed regulating switch, check whether the internal control rod and inclined edge are deformed and seriously worn, and then check whether the rotating shaft is broken. If the internal components of the speed regulating switch are damaged, replace it. If the control rod is deformed, just recalibrate it.

4. Then check whether the moving piece of the rotary switch is deformed and whether the fixed piece is seriously worn or loose. If the moving piece is deformed, it can be corrected by pointed nose pliers; If the stator is loose, it needs to be fixed again; If the stator is seriously worn, it needs to be replaced again. Among them, the rotary switch also includes a rotary elastic device to check whether the spring force in the rotary elastic device is invalid and cracked.

The above is the specific introduction of the principle and maintenance method of the fan rotary switch, because the fan rotary switch belongs to the electronic switch, and the fan rotary switch adopts the electronic circuit or microprocessor chip. The use of fan rotary switch can change the number of stages, voltage, current and frequency of the motor, which can well regulate the speed of the motor and control the service performance of the motor. If the rotary switch fails and the wind speed cannot be adjusted, the rotary switch needs to be overhauled at this time.
