AML26GBE3AA05RG

Rocker switches are a type of switching device that enables a user to turn on or off electrical equipment with a simple push-down or rock motion. The AML26GBE3AA05RG is a rocker switch with a range of applications and a variety of working principles.

Applications

The AML26GBE3AA05RG is a versatile rocker switch, suitable for applications in residential, commercial and industrial settings. It has a wide range of uses, including circuit protection, machine control and automation, home or office building wiring, and lighting control and switching. The switch is also used in PC keyboards and medical equipment. It features a current rating of 16A and voltage rating of 250V.

Working Principle

The AML26GBE3AA05RG works on a rocker mechanism. It is designed with two metal plates that are connected to each other by a spring. When the switch is in its OFF state, the plates are held together, blocking the flow of electricity. When the switch is pressed in either direction, the plates are separated, allowing current to travel through the wires that are connected to the switch. This action changes the switch from OFF to ON or vice versa, depending on the direction in which the switch is pressed.

The AML26GBE3AA05RG also features a snap-action mechanism. This mechanism is what causes the metal plates to separate and enable the current to flow through the switch. When the switch is pressed, the spring moves the plates away from each other and the resistance against the pressing force increases rapidly. This causes the two plates to snap apart, allowing the current to flow through the wires.

Conclusion

The AML26GBE3AA05RG is a versatile rocker switch, suitable for use in a variety of applications. It works on a rocker mechanism, with two metal plates connected to each other by a spring. When the switch is pressed in either direction, the plates separate, allowing current to pass through the wires that are connected to the switch. The switch also features a snap-action mechanism, which causes the plates to separate rapidly when the switch is pressed, allowing the current to flow through the wires.
