M2112NEW01

Rocker switches are commonly used to control various types of equipment, including coffee makers, heaters and electric kettles. The M2112NEW01 is a heavy-duty, waterproof rocker switch designed for high-humidity and low-voltage applications. This article will discuss its application field and working principle.

Application Field

The M2112NEW01 is a high-performance, waterproof, illuminated rocker switch with a three-pin terminal configuration. Its epoxy construction ensures it is dustproof and waterproof making it ideal for use in wet, humid and marine environments such as bathrooms, shower rooms and boats. The switch is rated for up to 8.4A maximum current at AC125V and DC12V. It has a 120° angle switch, meaning that it can efficiently control various positions and directions. The LED illuminated rocker enables the user to easily identify the switching position even in dark environments. It can be used to control various types of devices such as fans, heaters, boilers, coffee makers, lighting systems and more.

Working Principle

The M2112NEW01 rocker switch works on the principle of moving contact between two contacts. The switch operates on the principle of closing a metal contact when the rocker is moved in one direction and opening the metal contact when moved in the other direction. This allows for the switching of electrical power from one position to another with a single motion of the rocker. The switch is typically divided into two types of contacts –Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC), which regulate the flow of electricity. The NO contact is usually open during normal use and the NC contacts are usually closed. When the rocker is moved in a given direction, the desired contacts are actuated, so that regardless of the starting conditions, the contacts can be adjusted with a single action.

The M2112NEW01 rocker switch is a specific type of switch that has become popular due to its flexibility, reliability and ease of use. It is made from high-quality components and designed to provide reliable operation. The illuminated design allows the user to easily identify the switching position, even in dark environments. Because of its ability to withstand high voltages and low-humidity conditions, it can be used in a variety of applications.
