Working Principle of 50093979-05 Pushbutton Switches

The 50093979-05 pushbutton switch operates by depressing a small plunger, which then completes a circuit when the plunger reaches the bottom of the switch. This is referred to as a “make” contact. When the plunger is released, the switch contacts open again and the circuit is interrupted.

These switches can also be used in combination to provide the user with multiple functions. By combining two switches, the user can turn on one function when the switch is depressed, and a different function when the switch is released.
