831618C3.BB

The 831618C3.BB is a type of snap action switch, or limit switch, also known as a toggle switch. These devices are typically used in industrial and residential applications that require an operational need to turn something on or off quickly and efficiently.

Snap action switches, such as the 831618C3.BB, have a variety of uses and can be found in a range of settings from controlling motors and fans in air conditioning systems to controlling lights in a home. It can also be used in vending machines or ticket machines, or even as a way to control the flow of water for agricultural irrigation.

Working Principle

A snap action switch is typically a mechanical device that triggers when an external force supplies a change in the electrical current or voltage. The switch contains two mechanical parts: a fixed contact and a movable contact.

When an external force is applied to the movable contact, the contact is pushed inwards and it will open or close the switch. This produces a change in electrical current or voltage, causing the switch to perform its intended function.

The 831618C3.BB is an AC/DC rated switch with a maximum temperature rating of 105°C. It has a maximum rating of 10 amps at 250 volts AC, or 30 amps at 125 volts DC. The switch is enclosed in an insulated housing and is dust-tight and water-resistant.

The switch is UL, CUL, and QPL certified, meaning that it complies with the standards set forth by Underwriters Laboratories for safety and performance. It has an operating temperature range of -30°C to +105°C and an operating humidity range of 0 to 95%.

Conclusion

The 831618C3.BB is a reliable and durable snap action switch that is designed to be used in a variety of settings. Its UL, CUL and QPL approval ensures that the switch is safe and reliable, and its operating temperature range and humidity range make it ideal for industrial, agricultural, and residential applications.
