Kichler 370040 4-speed Rotary Switch 10 Amp

Product Description

The KICHLER 370040 is a 4-speed rotary switch rated at 10 amps, designed for ceiling fan speed control applications. This switch gives installers a straightforward mechanical control option for regulating fan motor speed across four discrete settings. Built with a plastic housing in a silver finish, it measures 0.98 inches by 2.76 inches by 4.49 inches and weighs 0.45 pounds, making it a compact, lightweight replacement component. Electricians and HVAC-electrical crossover techs install this type of rotary switch as a direct replacement when an existing fan speed control fails or during a fan upgrade that requires a dedicated speed selector.

This rotary switch is suited for residential ceiling fan installations where a wall-mounted or pull-chain speed control is being replaced or upgraded. The 4-speed configuration provides off, low, medium, and high settings. Its compact dimensions allow for standard electrical box mounting in most residential wall applications. The 10-amp rating makes it appropriate for single-fan circuits operating within that load threshold.
