A16-TWA-2

Introduction
A16-TWA-2 is a pushbutton switch, which is widely used for a range of industrial control applications. It is a single-pole, one throw device that is operated manually by pressing and turning it off or on when in its normal off position or when in its momentary on position. The switch also has an auxiliary contact that can be used to control other devices or systems when the switch is operated. It is available in a variety of mounting styles, sizes, and configurations to meet the requirements of any application.
Application Field
A16-TWA-2 is most commonly used in industrial control applications and process control systems. It is suitable for applications such as motor and gear control, intelligent device control, limit switch wiring, and circuit interlock systems. It can also be used in marine and offshore applications, such as ship automation systems, and is UL approved for hazardous locations. It is certified for use in Class I, Division II and NEC Class 1 applications.
Working Principle
When the switch is operated in its off position, the contacts are open, and no current can pass through. When the switch is in the on position, the contacts are closed and current can flow through the circuit. When the switch is manually operated in its momentary position, current can flow through the circuit for a determined amount of time before the contacts return back to the open position. Additionally, the auxiliary contact is activated when the switch is pressed from its off position, and it can be used to control other systems, devices, or circuits.Advantages
A16-TWA-2 offers many advantages when used in industrial applications and process control systems. This switch is designed with a robust construction, which makes it highly durable and reliable. Additionally, it offers flexible mounting options, allowing it to be easily installed and maintained in many applications. The switch is also sealed to IP67, which provides maximum protection against dust and moisture. Finally, the switch is designed with a low operating force, which makes it easy to operate and ensures that it can be used in a wide range of industrial control applications.
Conclusion
The A16-TWA-2 pushbutton switch is a highly reliable and durable switch that is suitable for a range of industrial applications.
