Description
You are bidding on a FANTASTIC set of WW2 German Luftwaffe Edmomentumschalters (Pressure Switches)! These were used in various aircraft such as the Me109, Fw190, Me262, Ju88, Ju87, and others!
This switch was part of the main electrical system of the aircraft, and were generally used in the gear retraction system. They were the main cut-off switch for the landing gear, which shut off the hydraulics once the gear had been raised, and sent a signal that indicated to the pilot the position of the gear (Up or Down).
Made of aluminum and steel, these switches are in VERY NICE used condition. They are 100% mechanically functional, and were used in various aircraft. I have indicated similar ones on the Me109 landing gear in the last photos, as well as the nose gear of the Me262. Perfect for any Luftwaffe collection or restoration project!
