Rocker switches are generic name for a range of different technology and power switching level to choose from. They are popularly used in a variety of industries, and their application fields vary highly based on their power switching capabilities. This article will focus on the 2-1571986-8 application field and the operating principles of the switch.The 2-1571986-8 midichannel switch is part of the rocker switch family. It’s a cost-effective solution that is mostly used in mechanical applications such as pumps, valves, and actuators. It is often used as a regular “On-Off” switch, but it can also be used to control speed, timing, and enabled of the combination. This switch allows up to 3-way switching capability and provides a secure connection even when subjected to vibration, impact and continuous usage conditions.In terms of general how it works, the 2-1571986-8 rocker switch comprises two contacts, normally open and normally closed contacts. When the switch is pressed down, the internal “rocks” which connects the two, are also pressed down and move away from each other. This creates a connection between the two ends, allowing current (or any other switched item) to flow. When the switch is released, the rocks move back to the ‘open’ position, breaking the connection and switching off the system.The 2-1571986-8 rocker switch also comes in various physical properties. Taking the average 5A switch in the series, which is designed to provide a medium-duty general purpose switching, as an example, it has an electrical rating of 110/125 VAC and a current rating of 5 A at a 250 VAC rating and carries a UL, CSA and ENEC approval. It has an operating temperature range of -20°C to +85°C. The benefits of using a 2-1571986-8 rocker switch are the cost savings versus a larger and more expensive switch, robust construction for withstanding shock, vibration and movement and therefore reducing breakdowns and the simple yet effective design that requires no additional wiring or connections. In conclusion, the 2-1571986-8 rocker switch provides a reliable and cost-effective switching solution and is suitable for a variety of industrial applications. Its easy installation, robust construction, and low cost make it an attractive solution for those who look for economical and efficient switching solutions.
