Pushbutton Switches

A pushbutton switch, also known as a push button, is a type of switch that is specially designed to be pushed to make and break a connection in a circuit. It comprises a switch mechanism, an actuator and a housing. Pushbutton switches commonly feature a single momentary or latching action, although there are occasional models which feature multiple actions. MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches are typically used in numerous applications ranging from powering motors to access control.

MPI001/FL/GN Pushbutton Switches Application Fields

MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches are widely used in various control applications, including soldering / welding, water heater and hot water treatment. It can also be used in automotive applications such as car locks, air conditioner, immobilizer and audio systems. In medical applications, these switches are also used in systems such as infusion pumps, temperature controllers, sphygmometers and electric beds. Additionally, MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches are used in automated control systems for boilers, ovens, and griddles, and in industrial robots, power tools, and other automated processes.

MPI001/FL/GN Pushbutton Switches Working Principle

MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches are actuated by turning a switch stem that is connected to an actuator, or by pressing a protruding button. This causes the contact position to change, in turn causing an interruption to the electrical connection. Depending on the design of the switch, the operating force required to actuate the switch varies. Generally speaking, pushbutton switches are rated by their contact current and voltage, as well as their operating temperature and life expectancy.

MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches are made up of a sealed housing and a contact block, which contains the button, actuator, and switch stem. The contact block contains a matching pair of contacts which must be in contact when the switch is actuated. This ensures that the circuit is completed. The contact block is also filled with a special lubricant which helps to reduce the amount of wear and tear due to repeated actuations.

Once actuated, the contact block inside the switch causes the electrical circuit to open or close. This is known as a single-pole, single-throw (SPST) switch. When the actuator button is pressed, the switch contacts close. When the button is released, the contacts open. While most MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches feature an SPST configuration, it is also possible to use other configurations, such as single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switches, double-pole, single-throw (DPST) switches, and double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) switches.

The contact current of the MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches is rated at 500 mA, and the operating temperature range is between 0°C and 70°C. The operating life expectancy of the switch is rated at 50,000 cycles. The switch is typically rated for up to 220V AC, although higher voltage ratings are also available.

In conclusion, MPI001/FL/GN pushbutton switches are a popular choice for their versatility and reliability. They are well-suited for numerous applications, ranging from powering motors to access control. They are made up of a sealed housing and contact block which contains the switch stem, button and actuator, and offer a single-pole, single-throw switch configuration with a contact current of 500 mA and an operating temperature ranging between 0°C and 70°C.
