I am trying to locate a replacement lid latch microswitch for the Eppendorf 5415C centrifuge. Ozark advises they have none and the mfg. no longer supports this device. Anyone got one? or know where I can get one? the supposed part number 2237508-3. BTW the switch works but the actuating arm is broken.

Eppendorf 5415C lid microswitch needed

The original switch was a Marquardt 1052.2201. Their current replacement (as of 2012) is the 1050.0151 switch with the 190.074.013 lever. I think I used a Cherry E61 series last time (0E61-00H0, 0E61-10H0, or 0E61-60H0 - can't recall which, and can't find the others at the moment). Honeywell's 311SM series should work too. If you want Marquardt, try Wes-Garde or Mouser. Allied, Newark, and Digi-Key will have Cherry or Honeywell.
