M2029TZW13-JA

Rocker switches, such as the M2029TZW13-JA, are electrical switches that are operated by a “rocking” motion of the switch. When the switch is operated, a lever is pushed one way and then the other, cyclically turning the switch on and off. When the switch is “on,” a circuit is closed, connecting power to whatever the switch is hooked up to. When it is “off,” the circuit is in an open, disconnected state.

Rocker switches are frequently used in both industrial and everyday applications. These applications can vary greatly, depending on the voltage and amperage capabilities of the switch and the environment in which it is used. Switches of this type have been used for decades in automotive applications and for managing the power flow to electric motors, as well as for lighting, appliances and general purpose applications.

Rocker switches can be used in hazardous environments that are not suitable for use with ordinary switches. That is because the switch maintains a relatively wide separation between its two contact points, meaning it is less likely to become damaged due to accumulated dirt or wet conditions. It is also designed with a contact surface that has a rubberized coating to help further provide added protection from water and dust.

One of the most important factors in choosing the right rocker switch is the device’s current rating. This is the maximum amount of current allowed through the switch at any given time, and it is specified in amps, kiloamps or milliamps. This rating will be especially important in applications that require a large amount of power. In this type of application, it is important to make sure that the switch has a high enough current rating to handle the load.

Another consideration when selecting a rocker switch is the type of circuit it will be used in. There are two types of rocker switches available: momentary switches, which switch on only when pressure is applied; and maintained switches, which stay in whatever position the lever is left in until the pressure is released. Both types of switches can be used for many applications, but the correct one must be chosen for the situation.

The M2029TZW13-JA is a maintained rocker switch, which means that it will stay in the same position until the pressure is released from the lever. This switch is rated for up to 10 amps of current and is designed for use in medium voltage applications of up to 600 volts. This makes it ideal for many applications, such as power tools, motor control, lighting, and instrumentation.

The M2029TZW13-JA also features an IP65 rating, which seals the switch against dust and liquids, making it suitable for use in hazardous and wet environments. Additionally, the switch is rated for up to 20,000 electrical operations, further ensuring lengthy performance life.

The working principle of the M2029TZW13-JA is simple. When the lever on the switch is in an “on” position, a circuit is completed, allowing power to flow through. When the lever is in the “off” position, the circuit is open and the power is cut off. This can be used for a variety of applications, depending on the voltage and amperage that the switch is rated for.

Rocker switches, such as the M2029TZW13-JA, are often used in industrial, automotive and everyday applications. These switches provide a secure, sealed connection and can be used for many applications, depending on the current rating and type of circuit it is used in. With its 10 amp rating, IP65 rating and 20,000 electrical operations, the M2029TZW13-JA is a reliable and dependable switch for medium voltage applications.
