COLE HERSEE part description

Cole Hersee intermittent and continous solenoids provide safe, dependable control of electrical systems on all type of DC low voltage vehicles. In addition, they are ideal for marine applications and for forward and reverse systems in golf carts, garden tractors, fork lift trucks and winch operation.
Solenoids are relays which are commonly used to remotely switch a heavier current. By using a solenoid, the amount of heavy wiring needed to power the load is reduced, since the control circuit mounted inside the cab typically utilizes a smaller wire gauge.
Housing are available in plated steel, phenolic or plasticized steel. A latching solenoid can act as a remote disconnect switch.
