Toggle Switches

Toggle switches are a type of electric switch able to provide an isolation from a power source or to control a circuit. Each toggle switch has a wide range of options for different functions and applications, amongst these is the 7411LDZBE, a single pole double throw type of toggle switch.

7411LDZBE Toggle Switch Application Field

The 7411LDZBE toggle switch is a single pole double throw switch used in a variety of applications that require a switch to control one or more circuits. Due to its durable build, it is often used in equipment housed in harsh environments, such as motor vehicles and ATMs. The toggle switch is used in electronic circuits as an on/off switch, when an operator has the need to control a device electrically. It can be used in insulated box, in an electrical outlet or as a stand-alone switch.

7411LDZBE Toggle Switch Working Principle

The 7411LDZBE toggle switch contains a lever arm in its center, which is used to move the contact between two positions. This mechanism is responsible for the on/off states, depending on the movement of the arm. The switch is kept in place by a support that helps keep the lever arm in either the on or off state. When the lever is in the off position, the current is blocked from flowing to the output, providing an insulated output. When the lever is flipped over, the current passes through the switch, thus turning it on. The toggle switch\'s current-based signal can also be used to light an LED indicator, allowing the operator to easily identify which state the switch is currently in.

The 7411LDZBE contains one of the most common contact configurations: the single pole-double throw. The switch has been tested with AC currents up to 10A and with DC currents as high as 30A. The operating temperature range of this switch is -40°C to 85°C.

Conclusion

The 7411LDZBE toggle switch offers reliable operation in high and low temperature environments, while providing an isolated and insulated output. This switch is an ideal choice for applications where the operator needs to control a device through an on/off mechanism, since it is able to handle plenty and prolonged current loads, and due to its strong construction, it is a perfect fit for applications that require extra protection from the elements.
