Main Features

The 7000 Series of Pushbutton Switches offers several features which help to ensure good performance and customer satisfaction. These features include:

• Wide range of voltage and current ratings for maximum flexibility in applications.
• Integrated LED indication for help in troubleshooting.
• Low temperatures and high-humidity operation.
• Suitable for shallow depths, allowing for slim and compact designs.
• Wide range of materials, including metals and plastics.
• Customizable design and ergonomic feedback.
• Wide range of contacts, including single and double-pole configurations.

Working Principle

The core element of the 7000 Series of Pushbutton Switches is the contact mechanism. This consists of a contact-closure element, which is activated when the pushbutton is pressed, as well as a spring-loaded actuator which releases the contact element. Together, these two parts form the basis of the switch’s operation, closing the contact when the pushbutton is pressed and releasing it when it is released.

The contact-closure element is normally in an open position, meaning that no electrical current is flowing through the circuit. When the pushbutton is pressed, the actuator is released and the contact element closes, allowing for an electrical current to flow and thus activating the switch. Once the pushbutton is released, the actuator is re-engaged and the contact element is opened again, stopping the current flow and deactivating the switch.

Conclusion

The 7000 Series of Pushbutton Switches are a reliable, durable and flexible choice when it comes to switch solutions. They offer a wide range of features and are suitable for many different applications, including industrial, aerospace and medical. Many of the switches in the series feature a contact-closure element, with an integrated actuator, providing an efficient and convenient way to control an electrical circuit.
