Answer

In general, basic switches can be used in DC, but the electrical durability varies from product to product.Some models have reference evaluation data of switching capability. Please inquire individually.

Explanation

Products without stipulated specifications in DC can be used in DC, but electrical durability for them must be checked individually.
There is a limit for high-voltage DC switching to cut off the arc, which can be estimated using a theoretical value as a reference. Some models have reference evaluation data of switching capability. Please inquire individually.
