ET310E12-Z

Toggle switches are used to control electric circuits for various purposes. An example is ET310E12-Z, which is a DPDT toggle switch. DPDT stands for double pole double throw, which means that the switch will have two separate circuits to control two independent loads. The ET310E12-Z is designed for a variety of applications ranging from high voltage up to 12 Amps.

These toggle switches feature two "On-Off" positions for each pole. In addition, it is also capable of latching, making it easy to switch on and off as needed. This makes it suitable for applications where a long-term control is necessary. The switch also has a momentary-on feature that allows it to stay in the "on" position until it is pushed or released, making it useful in applications requiring momentary control or action.

The construction of the ET310E12-Z is robust and compact. It is essentially a plastic housing with a metal lever inside, which allows the user to control the switch. The body of the switch is made of high strength plastic, making it ideal for rough, industrial use. The metal lever is made of brass or copper, while the spring is made of metal, providing additional durability and reliability.

The working principle of the ET310E12-Z is simple. When the lever is pushed up, the metal contacts inside the switch will come in contact with each other and thus the power will be connected. When the lever is released, the metal contacts will become separated and the power will be disconnected. This type of switch is preferred in applications requiring a high degree of reliability and control, due to its robust construction and ease of use.

From entertainment systems to power tools, the ET310E12-Z is used in a wide range of applications. Industrial, commercial and residential electric systems often rely on these switches to control the power and safety of the electrical systems. They can also be used to control lighting, fans, motors and other electrical devices, offering a reliable and convenient solution for any application.

In conclusion, the ET310E12-Z is a durable and reliable DPDT toggle switch, designed for applications requiring momentary control or action. It is constructed from high strength plastic, metal lever and a metal spring, making it ideal for both industrial and residential use. It has two "On-Off" positions for each pole, and is also capable of latching, providing a secure and easy way to control the power. Its versatile usage makes it a great choice for any electric control application.
