I wanted to throw out a fishing line and see if anyone has any ideas or literature.

Looking to replace a Furnas 3 position maintained selector switch which has been abused (and bonus points for 120vac indicator lamp)

I believe it is mid 1960s vintage. Hoping I can find one on ebay.

Here's the issue: someone apparently scraped off the tag and gave it to their maintenance boss who forgot about it or wouldn't spend the money, or hit a dead end.

What I do have is other part numbers in the same 4 postion enclosure...

BHP15X and BHP16X are the stop/start PBs. Those work just fine.

I could probably go back with Al Bradley 30mm stuff but I think they are deeper than this case and so that would pose a new issue requiring a new enclosure and the trim-nuts would obscure the labels....

Thanks for any help!







 
I used to work for a Furnas distributor in between machining jobs in the 80's. From looking at that it could be a proprietary special. You might have to just replace the guts instead of getting a whole new unit. I believe Furnas was bought out by Siemens, have you tried calling them?
