The manual says: “Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may damage the switch and should be avoided.” – What does that mean?

The way these switches are constructed they tend to have early life failure if you only pull the trigger partially versus all of the way. I do not believe it is specific to any brand or manufacturer. The convenience comes with a price. You can always replace the switch.

Sounds like a question that relates to components used in the construction of the unit. I would suggest contacting the manufacturer for this answer.

Sorry, Dave, I have no idea...you might want to check at a local hardware store and ask the tool people to explain that to you or contact DeWAlt directly...I'm sure they have a customer service number or email.

From my understanding, the relay can be used as a battery isolater, so it is likely designed for continuous use. I have used the relay to switch an electric radiator fan in my truck and have had it continuously active for maybe 20-30 minutes without any issue.

The Switch Requires Alternating Current (A/C) There Is A Good Chance The Dc Would Damage The Switch

The toggle switch is worth the money it operates just fine no problems, hope this helps.

It is a dimmer also and you may ruin the fan. Most fans are designed to run full speed or have wiring that allows several speeds. This switch chops the power. No longer 60 cycles per second so it may be hard on the fan or fry it. Doubt it would catch on fire but it is a thought. Smarthome.com has switches that may control motors. As in no dimmer. Check the wattage your circuit will use before you buy a switch.

It will run continuously if left in the on position on a normal switch. I think you may be inquiring about meeting continuous ventilation requirements, which if so, you would couple this fan with a cvc 100 which will run the fan continuously at 20% power and then when you turn on actually activat e the unit via switch you will move to %100 for 20 min and revert back to 20% after that time period is up.

So Sorry I have not read the manual that well, so just cannot say one way or the other. I would think for the price of the machine why not risk it?

There is usually a mechanical difference to prevent that. Higher voltage will usually damage anything designed to operate at a lower voltage, and vice versa.

Hi. Sounds like a bad switch, or a bad connection to the switch. I would use your warranty to repair or replace the units.

The switch position never moves when you use it remotely. It always stays in a center position and springs back there after you move it manually. Hope that helps.

The voltage shouldn't affect the temperature regulation of his dial. Yes the temperature reading is in celcius. I use it on my oven and cook most things at 200ish. I can't vouch for how accurate the temperature is but it does seem repeatable. I have been happy with it for an oven situation. It depends on how precise you need your temperature setting. Like most dials there is also a 10ish degree window between the on switch and when it shuts itself off. Hope this helps

It's a "single-strike" switch-pedal, meaning that will pass through power only while been pressed/pushed on, and will stop power when released, it can be set in a reverse manner, meaning that you can also set it to be "on" permanently, and when pressed/pushed, will cut power and when released will pass through power again...hope that will help you!

I have three of these, and my oldest one does have a intermittent problem. I use my routers a lot, so what I have done is wired up a switch controlled recpticle and leave the router switch on and control the router with the 20 amp switch. This is also my double safety when I change bits so I don' have to unplug.

I'm not sure what you are asking, but I can tell you it has worked well for me. I am not a professional that uses it multiple times daily, but I am rehabbing a home built in 1922 and it has kept me from getting shocked (several times) on circuits that were supposedly off. Zero problems with the on/off switch

I don't know, but I used it for a dust collector, so I could use remote wired switched with lower current. It worked but bizzed very loudly when energised. I think it's designed to be energised only momentarily, may be designed to work with some sort of latching relay

Hi. My take on this switch, which I have been using in my system literally for decades, is that it is not picky about voltage. It works just fine for me as a pressure switch for my 24volt dc pump.

There's no spec on the switch over speed. From my experience, I would describe that there is a blink between the switch.
