Pushbutton Switches

MPI002/28/GN/24 Application Field and Working Principle

Pushbutton switches, such as the MPI002/28/GN/24 series, are widely used in a variety of industries and applications. They consist of a switch body that houses electrical contacts, a spring mechanism that returns the switch to its natural open position, and a manually operated actuator. Pushbutton switches are designed to be easily and quickly activated by mechanical force, enabling a single switch to connect and disconnect circuits or devices. The MPI002/28/GN/24 series pushbutton switches have the ability to provide a high degree of performance in a minimal amount of space, making them an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

The MPI002/28/GN/24 series pushbutton switches are manufactured using high-grade materials and feature contact ratings of 30A@24Vdc, 8A@125Vac, and 24A@12VDC. These switches are available in standard and illuminated configurations, with the illuminated versions providing a bright, consistent indicate when the switch is activated. The switches are also rated to IP67 and MIL-STD 202, ensuring they can perform optimally when subjected to harsh environments. This makes them well-suited for industrial applications and environments that experience extreme temperatures and high levels of dust and moisture.

From a working principle standpoint, pushbutton switches are designed to be able to handle large amounts of current and voltage in a minimal amount of time. When the actuator of the pushbutton switch is depressed, the electrical contacts within the switch body are engaged, allowing the flow of current through a connected circuit until the actuator is released. This makes these switches ideal for applications such as start/stop operations, where a single pushbutton switch can be used to control the starting, stopping, and resetting of a connected device or process.

In conclusion, the MPI002/28/GN/24 series pushbutton switches can be a great choice for a range of applications that require a reliable and durable switch. In addition to their great performance and compact size, they are IP67 rated and feature contact ratings of 30A@24Vdc, 8A@125Vac, and 24A@12VDC. Furthermore, the working principle of these switches make them ideal for start/stop, resetting, and other operations.
