Bryant 4822 SPDT Main-Contact Maintained AC Switch
The Bryant 4822 is a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) main-contact AC switch engineered to control alternating current circuits by directing power between two distinct switching positions from a single input. Its main-contact configuration suits primary circuit control duty rather than pilot or signaling use, giving electricians, panel builders, and maintenance technicians a dependable way to route AC power within a larger control scheme. This maintained-contact switch is available in Brown and Ivory to match panel and device finishes, and is intended for integration into professional electrical control systems, switchgear, and equipment panels that call for reliable single pole double throw switching action. The SPDT arrangement remains a common building block in control circuits where a single switch must select between two possible current paths, making the 4822 a versatile piece of switching hardware for panel-level AC control.
Key Features
- SPDT Switching Action: Single pole double throw configuration directs AC current between two separate circuit paths from one common input, supporting either/or circuit selection in a control scheme.
- Main-Contact Design: Built as a main-contact switch for primary AC circuit control rather than low-power pilot or auxiliary signaling duty.
- Maintained Contact Action: Maintained-contact operation holds the selected switching position until manually changed, suited for ongoing circuit-selection tasks.
- AC Switch Function: Engineered specifically for alternating current switching applications within control and power circuits.
- Single Pole Operation: Operates on a single pole, suited for straightforward AC circuit selection tasks without added multi-pole complexity.
- Color Options: Available in Brown and Ivory to coordinate with device and panel finishes.
- Model 4822 Identification: Identified by Bryant part number 4822 for straightforward specification, cross-reference, and reordering when servicing or replacing existing switching hardware.
- Bryant Manufacturing: Produced by Bryant, a long-recognized supplier of electrical wiring devices and switching hardware for commercial and industrial electrical systems.
