Pushbuttons are a type of switching system used for initiating and interrupting electrical current. Often found in industrial automation, pushbutton switches are most commonly used to control motors, lighting, heating and cooling systems, and other components of a facility’s infrastructure. The 3-102-636 Pushbutton Switch falls into this category, and is characterized by its unique features that make it distinct from other pushbutton switches.

The 3-102-636 Pushbutton Switch features a robust housing that is suitable for operation at temperatures ranging from -40°F (-40°C) to 302°F (150°C). It is corrosion resistant, flame retardant, and explosion proof, making it a safe and durable piece of equipment for any application. Additionally, the switch has an electrical rating of 6 amps at 250 Vac and 10 amps at 125 Vac, and can provide both momentary and non-momentary switching.

The 3-102-636 also has a variety of contacts, including Form C, Form D, and Double-Break SPDT, as well as both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) contact blocks. This allows the switch to be used in a wide range of applications and serve a variety of purposes. Different contacts can be used to control various components in an automated system, or to provide switching in motion control applications.

The 3-102-636 Pushbutton Switch is designed for quick and efficient installation, making it an easy choice for a variety of applications. The switch has a compact design that fits in tight spaces and can be installed in an array of panel thicknesses. It also features a field-adjustable depth stop that allows the switch to be easily mounted in a variety of depths to suit different application needs.

The 3-102-636 Pushbutton Switch is well-suited for both hazardous and non-hazardous environments, and is capable of operating in temperatures up to 302°F (150°C). This makes it an excellent choice for use in hazardous areas where high temperatures are present. The switch is also designed to be dust and water resistant, which allows it to be used in wet or moist environments.

When it comes to the working principle of the 3-102-636 Pushbutton Switch, it’s relatively simple: pushing the button causes the switch contacts to change state. When the button is depressed, the switch contacts are energized and the output is triggered. Releasing the button causes the contacts to return to their default state and the output is then de-energized. The 3-102-636 is designed to provide reliable operation and eliminate contact wear, so it will last for a long time without requiring maintenance.

In conclusion, the 3-102-636 Pushbutton Switch is a highly versatile and reliable piece of equipment that is suitable for a variety of applications. With its robust construction, adjustable depth stop, and wide range of contact configurations, the 3-102-636 can be used in hazardous and non-hazardous environments to control devices and components within an automated system. Additionally, its straightforward working principle makes it easy to install and operate.
