Introduction to Rocker Switches

Rocker switches, also called toggle switches, are mechanical electrical switches that are actuated by turning a rocker arm to one side or the other. A rocker switch is generally composed of a base, a body, a movable contact, an actuator and a contact pad. The body of the switch houses the contact elements and actuator. Turn it one way and the device turns on, and the other way turns it off. While frequently used in low-voltage switching applications such as automotive and audio/video, they can also be used in higher voltage/current circuits.

The 400AWMSP1R1BLKM6QE Application Field

The 400AWMSP1R1BLKM6QE rocker switch is a specific model of rocker switch based on the standard SPST (single-pole, single-throw) switch design. It is a Type 2 rocker switch with a center-off position, which means that it has both an On and Off position and a neutral, center-off position. As the name suggests, it has a black actuator, an illuminated type A white on-off legend, and a 5.5mmx12.5mm mounting hole size. This particular model is designed with an AC rating of 5A 250V, which makes it suitable for most low-voltage appliance, industrial and domestic applications.

The 400AWMSP1R1BLKM6QE Working Principle

The 400AWMSP1R1BLKM6QE rocker switch is actuated by moving a rocker arm in one direction or the other. When the rocker arm is toggled, it moves a set of contacts inside the switch body to open or close the circuit. This allows electricity to flow or stops it from flowing, based on the current configuration of the switch. Additionally, when the rocker arm is in the center off-position, it completely disconnects the circuit, further protecting the appliance from an overload or short circuit.

Conclusion

The 400AWMSP1R1BLKM6QE rocker switch is a popular model of rocker switch due to its versatile application field and reliable, long-lasting working principle. It is rated for up to 5A 250V making it suitable for many consumer, industrial and domestic applications. Additionally, it has a center-off position that allows it to stop the flow of electricity when needed, further increasing its safety and reliability.
