Rocker Switches

Rocker switches, also known as panel switches, are a type of momentary switch. They are typically used in low voltage and low current applications, as well as in devices that require manual control. In this article we will discuss the application field and working principle of the E108J1V3BE2 rocker switch.

The E108J1V3BE2 rocker switch is a latching SPDT switch, meaning that the electrical connection stays in whichever position it is placed in until it is manually switched to another position. It is a single pole single throw (SPST) switch, meaning that it has one terminal that in each position connects to either one or the other switching terminal. The switch is rated up to 500mA and 16V, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The switch is available in several different configurations, offering various options when selecting a switch. These include momentary action, on-off, maintained action, and normally closed (NC) or normally open (NO) contact types. The switch can be either panel or PCB-mounted and is designed with tactile feedback.

As to the application field, the E108J1V3BE2 is suitable for a wide range of devices and applications. It is often used in lighting applications, such as lamps, flashlight, and other lighting devices, as well as in automotive, industrial and consumer electronics and audio/video equipment.

The working principle of the E108J1V3BE2 is quite simple. When the switch is in its “off” position, no connection is made between the two switching terminals. When the switch is moved to its “on” position, a connection is made between the two switching terminals, allowing current to flow. The switch is designed with a spring-based detent mechanism that keeps the switch in the desired position.

The E108J1V3BE2 is designed to be robust and reliable. Its durable construction allows it to be used in a wide range of environments, including those with high vibration or temperatures. The switch is rated IP67, which gives it excellent dust- and water-resistance, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

In conclusion, the E108J1V3BE2 is a latching SPDT rocker switch that is suitable for a wide range of devices and applications. It is available in several different configurations, offering several options when selecting a switch. Its robust construction and IP67 rating make it suitable for use in a wide range of environments. The working principle is simple, where the switch creates a connection between two switching terminals when switched to the “on” position.
