46-270 BLK-E

Pushbutton Switches

Pushbutton switches are commonly used in electrical systems, controlling motors, power outlets, and other devices. They are designed to be easily operated by a user. Pushbutton switches come in a variety of styles, sizes, and design capabilities. One type of pushbutton switch is the 46-270 BLK-E, which is a single-pole momentary switch. This type of pushbutton switch can be used in a wide range of applications.

Application Field

The 46-270 BLK-E is commonly used in control and communications applications, such as in automotive, process control, and home automation systems. In addition, they can be found in consumer and industrial applications, including in commercial and consumer lighting systems, vending machines, fire alarm systems, and door access systems. The switch is also widely used in medical equipment, computer applications, and gaming systems.

Working Principle

The 46-270 BLK-E operates via a momentary push of the button, closing an electrical circuit for an instant. This creates a pulse of current. As soon as the user releases the button, the circuit is opened again, and the pulse is terminated. The switch features two standard electrical contacts, usually the common and normally open contact. When the push button is pushed and is held in place, the two contacts become connected, allowing current to flow.

The 46-270 BLK-E is distinguished by its robust construction, small size, and low power consumption. This makes it suitable for use in a variety of applications, as it can handle a wide range of load current and voltage. Additionally, the switch offers long life, low cost, and is sealed against moisture and dust.
