Pushbutton Switches

Pushbutton switches are a type of switch which enables the user to control it with the push of a button. They generally have either momentary or latching action and can be used in signal/light control, data entry, and more. One such kind of pushbutton switch is the 8631ZGD2.

8631ZGD2 Application Field and Working Principle

The 8631ZGD2 pushbutton switch is commonly used in the following applications: industrial controls, robots, home appliances, vending machines, power tools, lighting fixtures, and sporting equipment. It can be used to control on/off, phase switching, and pump/valve control systems from remote locations.

The 8631ZGD2 works by providing two momentary contact poles for control. The unit is composed of a switch, button, and shell. The switch is made of high-density plastic, which is surrounded by a metal shell. The switch has two momentary contact poles which can be operated either with an external pull cord or by pushing and holding the button.

When the pushbutton is activated, the switch contact poles close and current flows. When the button is released, the poles open and the current stops. This type of switch offers reliable operation in environments that require frequent switching and is suitable for systems where operation may be required while under vibration.

It is important to know the load rating of the 8631ZGD2, as this will determine if it can be used in the intended application. The maximum load rating for this switch is 5 amps, and it can handle loads up to 32V DC or 250V AC. It is UL approved and has an operating temperature range from -23F to +149F (-30C to +65C) and a rated mechanical life of 100,000 cycles.

The 8631ZGD2 is an economical solution for controlling on/off, phase switching, and pump/valve control systems. Its simple, reliable design makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, and its UL approval and high-quality construction ensure its long-term reliability.
