DigiKey Part Number CKN1132-ND- dpdt switches

Is this switch a Type1 or Type 2 switch? they are the same Up and down position but are opposite in the middle positions.


i just need to know if its a type 1 or type 2 switch to work with the wiring diagram I have.

Hello brentb,

Welcome to the DigiKey TechForum.

I do not see a Type 1 or 2 on the Datasheet.

They do list the function of the 7211 switch, for what pins will connect, as:

POS 1: 2-3, 5-6 // POS 2: 2-3, 5-4 // POS 3: 2-1, 5-4.

So looking at these pin locations, and your picture, I would say it lines up with the Type 2.

Because the switch will only connect to pin 1 (Top Left or Bottom Right), in POS 3.

Hi brentb,

Welcome to the TechForum.

I’m pretty certain it’s Type 2, based on the following information, but I would recommend testing it prior to hard wiring, just to be absolutely certain.

From pages 3 & 4 of the 7211SYZQE datasheet:


Based on the above info, in position 2 (the middle position), it would be connected as drawn below:

awesome, Thank you guys very much. I just wanted to make sure it was the switch I needed before buying them.
Thank You both!
