Moreover, if rated for example 220-240 V AC, intended for mains application, it would come with margins guaranteed from standards. For DC, other standards may apply and 250 V rating could be the absolute max. I would look for something rated ideally 25+ % higher than your worst case max voltage. | |

To be more specific I don't think I can post drawings, but each throttle valve currently has 9 mechanical limit switches and the throttle valve operating motor is rated at 250VDC and the switch system I intend to replace with is linked: shop.process-tech.com/Product/s/1VLVl/… | |
