LW3122-L3C0-B

Rocker switches are multi-functional switching devices commonly used in various electronic applications. The LW3122-L3C0-B is a member of the same family of rocker switches and its versatility makes it one of the most popular among users. 

The LW3122-L3C0-B is a two-pole rocker switch with a snap-in mounting. It is designed for a variety of applications including lighting, consumer products, and automation products. It has six terminals which are located in a rectangular base. The terminal in the middle of the body is a single-pole, double throw (SPDT) type. The terminals on the side are the single-pole, single-throw (SPST) type.

The LW3122-L3C0-B is built for use with either a 3/4" (1.87mm) mounting hole or a 5/8" (1.59mm) mounting hole. The rectangular base measures 12.7mm x 25.4mm (0.5" x 1"). The overall dimensions of the switch are: 28.6mm x 34.0mm x 11.2mm (1.13" x 1.34" x 0.44").

The LW3122-L3C0-B\'s working principle is based on the integration of metal contacts inside the switches. There is a spring-loaded contact arm which rests on the metal contacts. When the switch is in its \'off\' position, the metal contacts are disconnected and the current is not able to pass through the contacts. However, when the switch is shifted to its \'on\' position, the metal contacts are connected, allowing current to pass through.

In addition to its SPDT/SPST configuration, the LW3122-L3C0-B has three positions: \'off\', \'momentary on\', and \'lock on\'. The \'momentary on\' or \'momentarily on\' position allows the current to pass through the contacts while the switch is held in its active position. As soon as the switch is released, the contacts will move back to their \'off\' position. The \'lock on\' or \'fixed on\' position allows the current to flow through the contacts even when the switch is released.

The LW3122-L3C0-B can be used in a variety of applications, such as on/off signalling for systems, controlling lights and lamps, and home theatre systems. This rocker switch is UL recognized and RoHS compliant, and it can operate from a voltage of 6-12V AC/DC. Its other features include a silver flash contact, double-side screws, superior breaking capacity, and a long cycle life.

To sum up, the LW3122-L3C0-B is an ideal choice among rocker switches for use in various applications due to its versatility and strong features. Its two-pole design, SPDT/SPST configuration, three positions, voltage rating, and superior breaking capacity make it optimal for many applications.
