Pushbutton Switches

LB15WKG01-6F-JF is a type of pushbutton switch, typically used to establish and break a connection in a circuit. The switch may be directly manipulated by a human operator, typically to control a machine, or sometimes to activate or deactivate a circuit. Modern pushbutton switches are usually momentary contact type, which means that the circuit is only live while the button is held down.

Application Field

Pushbutton switches like LB15WKG01-6F-JF are commonly used to control many types of machinery, including industrial machinery, elevators, escalators, security systems, aircraft, and many other types of equipment. The pushbutton switch can also be used in various types of hazardous environments including wet locations, dusty environments, and areas with explosive atmospheres due to its robust design and sealed construction.

Working Principle

The LB15WKG01-6F-JF pushbutton switch normally consists of two contacts that are connected together when the button is pushed. The contacts can either be Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC). When the button is pressed the contacts are physically connected, allowing an electric current to flow. When the button is released the contacts separate, breaking the connection and thus stopping the flow of electricity.

If the switch has Normally Open contacts, then it will open the circuit when pressed and reconnect when released. Conversely, if the switch has Normally Closed contacts then it will break the circuit when pressed and reconnect when released.

In some cases, a pushbutton switch may also be used to provide feedback or to indicate when a device has been activated. For example, the switch may light up when the button is pressed to indicate that the machine has been successfully activated.

Main Features

LB15WKG01-6F-JF pushbutton switches are designed for heavy-duty applications and are rated for an operating temperature range from -4°F to +158°F. The switch has a robust construction that is resistant to impact, vibration, and dust, making it suitable for use in more demanding environments.

It is also compact and easy to install. The mounting hole of the switch is 0.5 inch and the switch is about 3.35 inch in length, making it easy to install even in the tightest spaces. Additionally, the switch is UL rated and CSA certified, making it suitable for use in industrial control applications.

Conclusion

The LB15WKG01-6F-JF pushbutton switch is designed for heavy-duty applications and is ideal for use in a variety of environments. It is robust and reliable, and is rated for an operating temperature range from -4°F to +158°F. The switch is UL rated and CSA certified and is also easy to install due to its small size.

Pushbutton switches like LB15WKG01-6F-JF can be used to control many types of machinery, as well as provide feedback or indicate when a device has been activated. This type of pushbutton switch offers a reliable and robust solution for a variety of applications, and offers many benefits to users.
