Rocker Switches

Rocker switches are momentary on/off switches that have a rocker mechanism whose action is activated with a rocking motion. They come in a variety of styles and colors, and many have illuminated features for use in dark environments. Rocker switches are often integrated into electronic control panels, allowing users to quickly turn on and off devices with just a couple of presses.

D101J12S215PQF is a type of rocker switch with silver contacts and white power-on indicator LEDs. It has a current rating of 20 A at 125 VAC and 10 A at 250 VAC and is rated for operation at temperatures up to 85°C. It is UL approved, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications.

Application Field

The D101J12S215PQF rocker switch is found in a variety of applications, from industrial control systems to lighting fixtures. It is often used to quickly start or stop the flow of power to a device, such as a motor. It is also found in security systems, such as burglar alarms and access control.

The switch is also used to control the operation of kitchen appliances and home entertainment systems. Its ability to easily turn on and off power makes it an ideal choice for any application where remote or automated control is desired.

Working Principle

The D101J12S215PQF rocker switch operates by mechanically disconnecting the contacts when depressed and reconnecting them when released. This opens or closes the circuit, thereby controlling the flow of electricity. The contacts are made of silver, which is highly conductive and resistant to corrosion or oxidation.

When the switch is depressed, the internal spring-loaded rocker pushes against the injected plastic base material, which causes the contacts to open and the circuit to be broken. When the switch is released, the contacts close again, restoring the power flow. The LEDs on the switch serve as indicators, indicating when the switch is in the on or off positions.

The D101J12S215PQF rocker switch is a reliable and durable switching mechanism that can be used in a variety of applications. It is easy to install and provides a reliable way to quickly turn on or off the flow of power to a device or system.
