Pushbutton Switches

A pushbutton switch is an electrical or mechanical device usually used to control a circuit. Pushbutton switches are available in many forms, including mechanical, electrical and electronic devices. They can be used to control the functions of many electronic circuits, such as the on/off switching of a light switch, the acceleration of a motor, or the time sequence of a start-up sequence. Pushbutton switches come in many styles and sizes, providing options for all different types of applications.

MPI001/TE/AM/24 application field and working principle

The MPI001/TE/AM/24 is a pushbutton switch, typically used for controlling electrical circuits. It is commonly used to turn ON/OFF a light switch, control the speed of a motor, or control the sequence of a start-up sequence. The MPI001/TE/AM/24 has two distinct states, either open or closed. When the switch is in the open state no current flows, but when it is in the closed state, current flows through the switch and the circuit is activated. The MPI001/TE/AM/24 can be used for diverse applications such as industrial, automotive and telecommunications. The design of this pushbutton switch ensures reliable operation in extreme conditions. It is rated IP67 and is resistant against dust, water and oil.

The MPI001/TE/AM/24 pushbutton switch is designed with a monoblock construction, composed of a plunger and a switch element. This ensures reliable and tamper-proof operation without sacrificing robustness and easy serviceability. The plunger is made of metal, smooth and spring-loaded, to allow for a comfortable feel when it is pressed. When activated, an electrical contact between the contacts on the switch element is made, providing a complete circuit. The design of the switch allows for several positioning options, ranging from vertical or horizontal, depending on the specific application.

This pushbutton switch is also designed with a relay feature, to provide additional control when used in automated systems. The relay feature allows the user to control multiple circuits with one switch, by providing the relay with a pulse or a series of pulses. When the relay receives the pulse, it then closes or opens the contact between the circuits, providing power to the system and signaling the other components to begin their respective operations.

The MPI001/TE/AM/24 pushbutton switch is a reliable, cost-effective switch. It allows for easy installation and maintenance, and provides a secure and tamper-proof control of electrical circuits. Its ruggedness, durability and operation in a wide range of temperatures makes it suitable for industrial and automotive applications, as well as telecommunications and consumer electronics.
