Rocker Switches

7105J51WQE12 is a type of rocker switches. It can allow the current to flow in both directions, making it an AC rated switch. Rocker switches are single pole switches with On/Off functions.

Application Field

7105J51WQE12 rocker switches are commonly used in many applications from the simplest wall mounted light switch to the most complex industrial automation equipment. They are also used in field service applications, such as medical, automotive, industrial instrumentation and other control panel applications. It is especially popular in car industry.

Working Principle

Rocker switches are based on the simple principle of activating an electrical circuit by means of a rocker mechanism. This mechanism can be operated manually, by pressing down on the rocker button, or by a mechanical or electrical actuating device. The switch is normally off when the rocker is in an upright position. Pressing down on the rocker activates the switch, allowing current to flow. Releasing the rocker de-activates the switch and breaks the electrical circuit.

7105J51WQE12 rocker switches have an internal spring return mechanism. When the rocker is pressed down, the spring inside is compressed and the electrical contact inside is turned on. When released, the spring pushes the rocker back to its usual position and turns the switch off.

In addition, it supports three-position toggle switch function. The three positions of the rocker correspond to three states of output. It allows it to be used in the three phase system, to be the power switch of the motor device. Series of 7105J51WQE12 rocker switches offer users with acceptable contact current ranging from 0.1 to 20A. This allows users to select the switch with matching current rate according to the application requirement.

Conclusion

7105J51WQE12 rocker switches are one of the most common type of switches used in modern applications. They are available in AC and DC rated versions and can be used for a wide range of applications from simple wall mounted light switches to complex industrial automation systems. The rocker mechanism is simple, reliable and offers a wide range of applications for users.
