Rocker Switches Overview

Rocker switches are widely used in many different types of applications, ranging from basic illuminated on/off switches to complicated logic circuits, and are an important component in the architecture of many modern gadgets and devices. G23KP-YB rocker switches have become the industry standard for design and function. Here, we discuss the applications and working principles of G23KP-YB rocker switches.

Application Fields

G23KP-YB rocker switches are widely used as on/off switches in automotive, marine, audio and entertainment, and industrial control applications. The switch body is rated for IP66/IP67, so it is dust-tight and water-resistant for use in harsh environments. These switches are available with two to sixteen positions and single or double pole. The switches are self-locking and feature a full face indexing plunger and rail switch system. Additionally, the contacts are gold plated and the contacts are rated to 16A @ 250 volts so they are socket compatible with most appliances.

G23KP-YB switches are also well suited for a variety of communication and security applications. The switches provide a secure and reliable link between LAN, ethernet, and cellular networks, and they offer reliable transmission of touch tone signals. Due to their durability and water-resistant rating, they are also ideal for use in maritime and outdoor activities. Additionally, this type of switch is often used in applications involving electrical contact control.

Working Principle

The working principle behind the G23KP-YB rocker switches is quite simple. It consists of a switch base and a plunger. When the plunger is pressed, it triggers the switch, allowing electric current to pass through the contacts in the switch to activate the circuit. The switch contacts consist of two pieces of metal that come together and form a resistance-free connection, thus allowing current to flow through the circuit. A set of terminals on the plunger then complete the circuit, allowing current to be transmitted via the switch.

The plunger in the G23KP-YB switch is designed to give a tactile feedback when pressed. That is, the user can feel when the switch is turned on or off, or when the switch\'s contacts are connected or disconnected. The plunger is also specially designed to avoid accidental activation when using the switch with fingers or hands, ensuring a secure and reliable connection.

The switch\'s body is rated for IP66/IP67, so it is dust-tight and water-resistant for use in harsh environments. Additionally, the contacts are gold plated, making them highly resistant to corrosion and oxidation, providing a longer life time. The contacts are also rated to 16A @ 250 volts so they are socket compatible with most appliances.

Conclusion

G23KP-YB rocker switches are an affordable and reliable on/off switch solution for a variety of applications. They are designed to offer a secure and reliable connection in harsh environments and feature a full face indexing plunger and rail switch system. Additionally, the contacts are gold plated, making them heat and corrosion resistant, while the audible and tactile feedback ensures a reliable connection. The switches are perfect for use in automotive, marine, audio and entertainment, and industrial control applications, and offer a secure and reliable link for LAN, Ethernet, and cellular networks.
