Pushbutton Switches

The 8R1012B-N-Z is a type of pushbutton switch, commonly used in various electrical devices, including computers, appliances, audio and video equipment, etc. Pushbutton switches can be found in a wide variety of applications for providing manual operation for many purposes. They are often used as a convenience switch to control the power supply or start of many products, including computers, printers, sound systems, TVs, and more.

Application Field and Working Principle

The 8R1012B-N-Z pushbutton switch is a Normally Closed type, meaning it normally has no current flowing and the contacts remain open when the button is not pressed. When the button is depressed, it closes the contacts, allowing power to flow and turning on the connected device. This is the primary and most common use for this type of switch. It is also commonly used as part of a control circuit, such as a circuit that allows two-way communication between two points or devices.

This pushbutton switch is suitable for most types of low voltage and current applications, including household electricity, industrial equipment, and automotive use. Its contacts are made of silver, which makes them resistant to corrosion and reduces their resistance to conduct electricity. The 8R1012B-N-Z is a miniature size switch, which is easy to install in tight spaces, making it a great choice for many applications.

The construction of this pushbutton switch is relatively simple. When depressed, the mechanical force acting on the switch assembly causes the contacts inside the switch to move against each other, connecting the electrical circuit and completing the circuit. The design of the 8R1012B-N-Z switch is such that it can tolerate a certain amount of heat and current, which makes it a safe and reliable choice for many applications.

In short, the 8R1012B-N-Z is a miniature size Normally Closed pushbutton switch, widely used in various electrical applications. It is a reliable source of switching and is often used to control the power supply or to operate small electrical devices. It is easy to install and its silver plated contacts are corrosion resistant and provide a good connection.
