Rocker Switches: 4TP12-10 Application Field and Working Principle

Rocker switches are a type of toggle switch with a rocker mounted lever, often used in control keyboards. A rocker switch is a type of switch with a simple and intuitive on-off mechanism operated by a rocker actuator. The rocker switch is an electrical component with two switches in one enclosure. Rocker switches provide a simple and intuitive way of controlling electronic circuits, making them popular in many electronic applications.The 4TP12-10 is a two-terminal, SPST type, normally open rocker switch from HongFa. It is classified as a miniature snap-in rocker switch and has an operating temperature range of -25 °C to 85 °C. The contact actuator is designed for convenient operation, with a life expectancy of 50,000 cycles. The 4TP12-10 is rated at 16A 250VAC, 2A 30VDC and features a sealable panel mount, allowing it to be suitable for damp or wet conditions.In terms of applications, the 4TP12-10 rocker switch has a wide range of uses, from industrial lighting and power tools, to household appliances and audio/visual equipment. It is typically used when an on/off sequence is needed, or to switch between operation modes and provide a momentary contact connection. The 4TP12-10 is also suitable for applications where standard drop-in rocker switches cannot fit.When it comes to the 4TP12-10 working principle, the internal structure of the switch consists of a panel-mounted contact arm that holds the switch internals in place. The contact arm is equipped with a mechanism that allows the contact arm to move freely up and down when the rocker switch is activated. When the contact arm is moved, it will create a connection between two contact points on the PCB, thus activating the switch.The contact points of 4TP12-10 rocker switches are designed with different shapes, such as a round contact for the 1a position and a square contact for the 1b position, ensuring that the device meets the IEEE standards, providing reliable performance and long service life. When operated, the contact points internally break, causing the current to be interrupted and the switch to be opened.The 4TP12-10 rocker switch comes in a variety of sizes and circuit configurations, so it can be used in a wide range of applications. Its features, such as its high temperature tolerance, dust and water resistance and long service life make it ideal for use in rugged industrial and commercial environments.Overall, 4TP12-10 rocker switches offer a versatile and easy-to-use method of controlling electronic circuits. They feature robust construction, reliable performance, high temperature tolerance and are compliant with safety and reliability standards. The 4TP12-10 switch is commonly used in industrial, commercial, and domestic applications, making them an ideal choice for a variety of applications.
