Rocker Switches

Rocker Switches are a type of electrical switch often used for controlling power or other circuits. They have a pivoting contact that rocks or \'wobbles\' slightly as the switch is being activated, making them durable and requiring minimal pressure to operate. The JWL21BC2A-A Rocker Switch is a high-quality product, specifically designed for a wide range of applications.

Application Field

The JWL21BC2A-A is a two-pole, double-throw (SPDT), panel-mount rocker switch with two illuminated, spade-style connectors. It has a wide range of applications, including control switches, speed controls, domestic and light commercial lighting, industrial lighting, pumps, water heaters, air conditioning, and various other consumer and industrial devices.

Working Principle

When the switch is pressed, the spade-style connectors contact an internal spring-loaded switch. This causes the contacts to close and complete the desired circuit. The contacts have a built-in reset mechanism, which ensures that the mechanical and electrical connections are not left open when the switch is released. The illuminated section of the connector indicates when the circuit is closed.

The JWL21BC2A-A offers an on and off switch, with both options being illuminated. The LED indicator will light in green when the switch is turned on, and change to an amber colour when it is off. This gives the user an indication of when the switch is engaged and when it is not.

Advantages

The JWL21BC2A-A Rocker Switch is a perfect choice for applications where safety is a priority. It is designed to meet the highest safety standards and is suitable for a broad range of electrical systems, from domestic to commercial. The illuminated section is eye-catching and the switch is resistant to dust, water and mechanical impacts, making it a reliable choice for tough applications.

The JWL21BC2A-A is also highly energy efficient, as it only needs minimal power consumption to activate the switch and a very low level of power is used to power the LED indicator. This makes it suitable for battery-powered systems and other applications where energy-efficiency is a priority.

Conclusion

The JWL21BC2A-A is a high-quality, robust and reliable rocker switch, suitable for a broad range of applications. It is energy efficient, meets high safety standards, and features an illuminated LED indicator. This makes it an excellent choice for domestic, commercial and industrial applications.
