Snap Action Switches

Snap action switches, also known as limit switches, are precision devices that are designed to trip or interrupt an electrical circuit when a predetermined force or position is reached. The BZE7-2RQ8-PG series is an example of a snap action switch. This article will discuss the application fields, working principle and installation of the BZE7-2RQ8-PG series.

Application Field

The BZE7-2RQ8-PG series has a particularly wide range of applications. It is commonly used in automotive and other vehicle systems, industrial machines, CNC equipment, medical equipment, elevators, and home or office automation systems. Its diverse uses and range of functions make it a popular choice for many different applications.

Working Principle

A snap action switch consists of a stationary contact and a movable contact. The stationary contact is connected to a load. The movable contact is spring-loaded and attached to a cam. When an actuating force is applied to the cam, the movable contact “snaps” into contact with the stationary contact, thus allowing an electrical current to flow. When the force is removed, the movable contact resets.

Installation

The installation of snap action switches is relatively simple. In most cases, they must be mounted on the surface of the machine body. They should be securely mounted and properly aligned to ensure accurate operation. Depending on the application, the switch may need to be connected to an electrical circuit. As with any electrical installation, it is important to use the proper protection equipment to prevent injury or damage.

The BZE7-2RQ8-PG is a reliable and versatile snap action switch. It is well-suited for a wide range of applications, from automotive systems to office automation. Its simple design and ease of installation make it an ideal choice for those who need a reliable and efficient switch for their application.
