LSXYAB3K-1A

The LSXYAB3K-1A is a type of snap action, limit switch. It is a polarized, single-pole, normally open electrical switch. This switch has a momentary action contact and has been designed for direct connect or panel mount applications. It has a 1-NO (normally open) normally contact configuration and a 1 Amps AC rating. The contacts are made of brass and the body is made of zinc. It has a UL and CE rated housing. The LSXYAB3K-1A is rated for several voltage, current and wire size conditions. The switch contacts are normally open, and they close when the actuator is actuated. The switch contacts open again, when the actuator is released. The LSXYAB3K-1A switch is typically used in applications where momentary contact operations are desired.

Application Field

The LSXYAB3K-1A is frequently used in automotive, industrial, aerospace and communications applications. It is designed to provide momentary contact operation in high speed applications, including door locks and trunk locks, parking lights, lane change indicators and emergency brake signals. It can also be used in industrial machines, such as water treatment and control applications and robotic applications. The LSXYAB3K-1A also has been used in medical applications and office equipment applications, such as photocopiers.

Working Principle

The LSXYAB3K-1A switch consists of an actuator plunger and a pair of electrical contacts. The plunger is actuated whenever pressure is applied to it by an external force. In its default state, the plunger rests on the switch body, keeping the electrical contacts open. When the actuator is actuated, the plunger moves down, making contact with the electrical contacts, closing the switch and allowing the current to flow. When the actuator is released, the plunger moves back up and the electrical contacts open again.

The LSXYAB3K-1A is designed to operate in low power, low voltage applications. It is a polarized switch, meaning that the plug in or panel mount must be connected correctly in order for the switch to function correctly. This type of switch is typically used in applications where momentary contact operation is required. The LSXYAB3K-1A is also ratings for a range of voltage and current conditions.
