Rocker Switches

Rocker switches, also known as side action switches, are made up of two distinct metal contacts. When it is depressed in one direction, the contact opens or closes. In other words, when the switch is pressed one way, an electrical connection is made, and when it is pressed the other way, the electrical connection is broken. The C5503AABG7602AW is a type of rocker switch that is widely used in commercial and industrial applications.

Application Field

The C5503AABG7602AW rocker switch is a versatile component and can be used in a variety of settings. Some of the common settings include lighting applications, such as wall switches and dimmer switches, along with fan speed controls, speedometer controls, alarm systems, and many more. This switch can act as a single-pole, single-throw switch, a single-pole, double-throw switch, a double-pole, single-throw switch, and a double-pole, double-throw switch.

In addition to its versatility, the C5503AABG7602AW has other advantages, such as its relatively low cost, availability of a variety of colors, and its wide operating temperature range of 32℃ to 85℃. It is also easy to install, as the mounting holes are pre-drilled, making installation relatively fast and simple.

Working Principle

The C5503AABG7602AW works by allowing the user to close or open an electrical circuit, depending on the direction it is pushed. The full electrical circuit has a “common” contact, which is the either the bottom or the top contact as seen when the switch is placed flat on a surface, a “latching” contact, which is either the left or the right contact, and a jumper contact, which is placed inside the switch’s housing.

When the switch is pushed in one direction, the latching contact makes contact with the common contact, in essence closing the circuit, while the jumper is disconnected from the circuit (open). The switch will remain in this position even when released, allowing the user to open and close the circuit without continual actuation. When the switch is pressed in the opposite direction, the circuit is open and the common contact is not connected to either the latching or the jumper.

In addition to its ability to stay in the same position after actuation, the C5503AABG7602AW is also rated for up to 10A at 125-250VAC, making it ideal for most commercial and industrial applications. The switch also has a snap-action mechanism that allows for an audible click when the switch is actuated, providing the user with both a tactile and audible indication that the circuit has opened or closed.

The C5503AABG7602AW rocker switch is a reliable and cost effective solution for many commercial and industrial applications. It is a versatile switch that can be operated as a single- or double-pole, single- or double-throw switch, is easy to mount and has a wide operating temperature range. Its snap-action mechanism provides an audible click when the switch is actuated, and its high current rating makes it suitable for most applications.
