A165L-AYM-12-2

Pushbutton Switches have many application fields and include many different variations to meet specific needs. The A165L-AYM-12-2 is one of the many types, and has a few features and a unique working principle that sets it apart from other types of pushbutton switches.

The A165L-AYM-12-2 Pushbutton Switch is a momentary type, meaning that it switches from one power state to the next when it is briefly pressed and then released. It is normally used as an input device for a circuit, such as for a machine control application or for a gaming system with multiple buttons. It is most often used in the ON-OFF and push-to-make ON-OFF switching configuration.

The A165L-AYM-12-2 Pushbutton Switch is specifically designed for applications where shock and vibration are an issue. It has a long electrical and mechanical life, with a durable metal case that can withstand 10 million actuations and a UL approved insulated plated case, making it a very reliable switch. The switch has a rated current of 10 amps and can be used with a circuit board. It is also dust, splash, and oil resistant.

The A165L-AYM-12-2 Pushbutton Switch has a distinct working principle that sets it apart from other types of switches. When it is pressed and then released, an internal spring allows it to return to the OFF position. As the button is pressed, a plunger pushes against an internal mechanism which rotates a disc with multiple electrical contacts that create a circuit, allowing electricity to pass through. The rotating disc also creates a latch so that when it is released, the electricity flow is cut off. This system helps keep the Pushbutton Switch from being stuck in the ON position, providing an added level of reliability.

The A165L-AYM-12-2 Pushbutton Switch is a reliable and durable switch that is suitable for many applications where shock and vibration are a major concern. It has a simple but effective working principle that allows it to switch power states with a single press, providing a reliable and cost-effective solution for applications requiring a momentary switch.
