Contacts - Multi Purpose

201145-1 is a type of multi-purpose contact switch. It provides reliable switching performance at a relatively low price. Contacts are made of brass with silver plating, and the contact force is maintained with a compression spring. The contact-end is composed of a small-diameter contact and a plate that are integrated to form a spring-latch. This makes it suitable for automated contact switching, due to its low moving mass.

The 201145-1 contact switch offers low contact resistance (typically 10mΩ) and a low contact bounce (0.01msec). It can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +105°C, and can withstand up to 50V. The contact life of the switch is rated at 10,000 operations.

The 201145-1 contact switch is widely used in various applications. It is generally used to control the on/off switch of circuits. For instance, it is used to turn on/off motors, fans, valves, solenoids, and lights. It can also be used as an output control for sensors, data loggers, and other electronic devices. Additionally, the switch is used in medical devices, such as heart monitors and ventilators.

The 201145-1 contact switch has two main working principles. The first one is the closing principle, which involves the spring-latch of the contact-end being pushed downward and closing the contact. When the switch is activated, the contact is shorted. The second working principle is the opening principle, which involves the spring-latch of the contact-end being pulled upward and opening the contact. When the switch is deactivated, the contact is opened.

In conclusion, the 201145-1 contact switch is an excellent choice for a variety of applications. This switch is characterized by its low contact resistance, low contact bounce, wide operating temperature range, and long contact life. It is ideal for controlling on/off switching of motors, fans, solenoids, valves, and lights, as well as medical and data loggers and other electronic devices. The 201145-1 contact switch is a cost-effective solution for any application that requires reliable contact switching performance.
