Toggle Switches

Toggle switches are common in electrical and electronic applications. They have been in steady use since the 1930s, and are still a mainstay of industrial and home automation, where they are used to turn things on and off and to select between two or more states. The 2TL5-2 is a type of toggle switch specifically designed for low voltage and high current applications. In this article we will look at the applications and working principles of this type of switch.

2TL5-2 Applications

The 2TL5-2 toggle switch is ideally suited for applications requiring low voltage, high current switching such as motor starters, circuit breakers, and automotive power relays. It is designed to handle up to 15 amps at 24 volts and has a compact, compact design that makes it an ideal choice for cramped installations. The toggle switch is also available in a variety of sizes, with multiple pole and contact configurations to accommodate any application.

Other applications include AC control switches, lighting switches, reversing switches and solenoid control switches. The switch is also suitable for use in military, hazardous location and aerospace applications, as it is UL approved and has high vibration and shock resistance. The switch is also RoHS compliant, ensuring it meets all current environmental regulations.

2TL5-2 Working Principles

The 2TL5-2 toggle switch is constructed from durable plastic material with chrome-plated actuators. The switch includes a spring-loaded plunger and a detent mechanism that cooperate to actuate the contact arrangement. The detent is adjusted to achieve the desired electrical load and the plunger is depressed to make or break the circuit. The contacts are designed to interrupt any line currents that may be present. The contacts also act as an inertial damping force to prevent false switching.

The 2TL5-2 switch can be connected using a number of wiring methods, including solderless terminals, screw terminals, or wire wrap. When connected correctly, the switch will provide reliable switching of the load when actuated, making it an ideal choice for home automation or industrial control applications. The switch can be installed in dry or damp locations, and in environments where dirt, moisture or corrosive gasses may be present.

Conclusion

Overall, the 2TL5-2 toggle switch is an excellent choice for applications requiring low voltage, high current switching. It is capable of handling up to 15 amps at 24 volts and is available in a variety of sizes and contact configurations. The switch is also UL approved, RoHS compliant and offers excellent vibration and shock resistance. We hope that this article has provided you with a better understanding of the applications and working principles of the 2TL5-2 toggle switch.
