Rocker Switches

Rocker switches are a type of switch which are typically used in electrical control panels. They are rectangular, motion-based components which are used to open and close circuits, allowing current to flow through the circuit. One of the most common types of rocker switches is the 7109J2AV2BE2.

The 7109J2AV2BE2 is a single pole, double throw (SPDT) switch which is housed in an IP65 rated enclosure. It has a minimum current rating of 6A, and is capable of switching resistive, inductive and capacitive loads. It is also suitable for AC and DC applications. The 7109J2AV2BE2 is a momentary type switch, meaning that the switch must be manually actuated and it does not remain in the “on” or “off” position when released. The contacts are rated for silver-alloy, providing a longer life and greater switch reliability.

Application Field

The 7109J2AV2BE2 switch is widely used in a range of applications due to its durability, reliability, and ease of use. It is commonly used in industrial control panels as a switch for various motors, such as fan motors, conveyor motors, and pumps. It can also be used in household appliances, such as washing machines, refrigerators, and dishwashers. Due to its IP65 rating, the 7109J2AV2BE2 is also suitable for outdoor applications such as lighting control, security systems, and access control.

Working Principle

The 7109J2AV2BE2 switch is a mechanical/electrical device that connects or disconnects two different parts of a circuit, allowing current to flow when the switch is engaged and blocking the current when the switch is not engaged. It is activated by pushing down the rocker, which causes the internal contact to bridge the two terminals of the switch. The switch contains two contact sets: one for the load, and one for the control circuit. When actuated, the control circuit contacts are bridged, creating the “on” state. When the switch is released, the control contacts are disconnected and the load contacts remain bridged.

Rocker switches like the 7109J2AV2BE2 are suitable for a variety of applications, thanks to their durability and reliability. They are simple to operate and require little maintenance, making them a cost-effective solution for a wide range of applications.
