7303K12AW4QE

Toggle switches are used in a wide range of home, commercial, industrial and automotive applications. They are designed to allow the user to selectively control a circuit by switch on or off. Among the most common toggle switches is the 7303K12AW4QE.

Application Field

The 7303K12AW4QE toggle switch is an ON-OFF-ON device, with a single pole double-throw (SPDT) action. This means that the switch can control one circuit which can be turned on or off, with two separate positions. It is most commonly used for automotive applications, such as controlling power windows, turn signals, emergency flashers and accessory circuits. It is also commonly used in music equipment and home appliances, wherever a switch is required to turn something either on or off. It is well-suited to controlling the on/off operation of LED’s, AC appliances and other lights. The 7303K12AW4QE is also used to establish a circuit connection between multiple resistor elements.

Working Principle

The 7303K12AW4QE toggle switch employs a lever mechanism which is actuated by a ‘push/pull’ motion. When the lever is pushed outward it will move towards either the ON or OFF position, depending on its current setting. To switch between ON and OFF, the lever is simply moved in the opposite direction. The switch will stay in the position in which it is placed until it is moved back the other way. This makes it a simple and reliable way to control current.

The 7303K12AW4QE toggle switch is a heavy duty, three position switch with a rated voltage of 250V AC and a maximum current rating of 3A. It is a panel-mount type switch and can be secured to a surface with the provided mounting nut. The device is water and dust resistant and the lever is marked with a raised “O”, denoting the OFF position of the switch.

In summary, the 7303K12AW4QE toggle switch is a versatile device designed for use in a variety of applications requiring an on/off control. It features an easy to use lever-style mechanism and is built with a sturdy and reliable construction. Additionally, the switch is UL rated to guarantee its quality and safety and is suitable for a range of home, commercial and industrial applications.
