Rocker Switches – GRS-2012-2040 Application Field and Working Principle

A rocker switch is an electro-mechanical device with two positions, usually designated as “on” and “off”. It’s an extremely common component and can be found in many everyday household items such as lamps, fans, and kitchen appliances. Rocker switches are also used in more complex circuits and are used in many industries for both industrial and consumer applications.

The GRS-2012-2040 is a miniature rocker switch that is specifically designed for applications that require a low profile and adjustable switching. Its low profile design makes it ideal for low power, consumer grade, and low-level industrial applications where space is limited. Its adjustable switching can provide either momentary (no ON/OFF position) or latching contact closure. As with all rocker switches, the GRS-2012-2040 provides on/off control to an electrical circuit.

The GRS-2012-2040 rocker switch is a single pole single throw (SPST) contact switch with two terminals. It has an actuator which is the physical element that can be “rocked” to make contact with either terminal. It’s important to note that the switch must be correctly connected to the supply voltage or it may not function correctly as there is no “off” position.

The contact closure of the GRS-2012-2040 works much like an ordinary on/off switch. When the actuator is in the down position (or “ON”), the switch is closed and contact is made between the two terminals. When the actuator is in its upright position (or “OFF”), the switch is open, thus breaking the circuit. This allows for the on/off control of the circuit.

The GRS-2012-2040 is commonly used in consumer, medical, and industrial environment as it is reliable and cost effective. Its small size and low profile makes it ideal for applications where space is limited. The adjustable switch closure ensures the user can easily switch the circuit ON/OFF by simply pressing the actuator. Common applications include consumer electronics, keypads, domestic appliances and industrial machinery.

The working principle of the GRS-2012-2040 can be summarized as follows: when the actuator is pressed (or “rocked”) it closes the contact and allows current to flow through the terminals. This causes a circuit to be completed, allowing power to be supplied to the device. Conversely, when the actuator is released, the contact is opened, thus breaking the circuit, thus cutting off the power.

In summary, the GRS-2012-2040 rocker switch is a low profile, affordable, and reliable tool for controlling power in low power, consumer, and low-level industrial applications. It can easily be integrated into existing circuits and its adjustable switching ability makes it convenient for the user. It’s also suitable for a variety of applications from consumer electronics to industrial machinery.
