12TS95-3

Toggle Switches

Toggle switches are an essential part of any industrial or commercial electrical system as they are used to control the flow of electricity in multiple applications. The 12TS95-3 is a momentary contact toggle switch that is specifically designed to be used in hazardous environments. It is made of a heavy-duty plastic with a metallic insert to provide strength and durability. The switch has a knob-style handle and can be operated with a single finger or thumb.

12TS95-3 Application Field and Working Principle

The 12TS95-3 is a momentary contact toggle switch that is typically used in industries such as automotive, agriculture, construction, and military. The 12TS95-3 can be used to control an array of electrical devices including electric motors, solenoids, and controllers. The momentary contact toggle switch is an important form of electric switch since it only opens the electrical current when the switch is activated and is then closed after a short duration. The switch can be operated in three different ways: normally closed, normally open, or momentary closed. In a normally closed situation, the current is always closed until the toggle switch is triggered and then the current is opened and stays open until the switch is reset. In a normally open situation, the current is opened until the toggle switch is triggered and then the current stays closed until the switch is reset. In a momentary closed situation, the current is closed when the toggle switch is activated and the current goes back to the open position when the switch is reset.

The 12TS95-3 has several features that make it perfect for hazardous environment applications. It has an international environmental rating of IP67 with an ingress protection rating of up to 67%. It has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C. The vibration resistance of the 12TS95-3 is rated at 5G and the shock resistance is rated at 10G. The switch is also RoHS and UL approved which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. It can withstand temperatures up to 1650 degrees Fahrenheit and is resistant to most chemicals. The switch also has a built-in red LED that lights up when the switch is activated.

The 12TS95-3 is also very reliable and durable as it has been tested for more than 120,000 cycles. The switch is also surge resistant, which makes it even more reliable for harsh environment applications. Its lightweight and compact design also make it easy to install and maintain. Overall, the 12TS95-3 is an ideal toggle switch for those in the automotive, agriculture, construction, and military industries as it is designed to withstand tough environments and provide reliable performance.
