MPI002/TE/AM/12 Pushbutton Switches: Application Field and Working Principle

Pushbuttons, or PBs for short, are critical components of many applications. They are widely used in the industrial, automotive, home automation and other sectors. PBs come in various shapes, sizes, functions and features, including the common 3-position type. PBs also have different contact types, including momentary, maintained and sequential.

The MPI002/TE/AM/12 is one of the most popular models of pushbutton switch. It is a 3-position type that can be used in a variety of applications, including those with multiple operations. Its features include a rugged construction, flexible wiring options and a low power consumption. Its contact type is maintained or momentary, depending on the wiring. It is also UL rated to ensure safety.

A PB switch typically has two main parts: a mechanical switch body and an electrical contact. The mechanical switch body is usually composed of plastic or metal, and it houses the electrical contact, which usually consists of a flat metal plate. An actuator, such as a pushbutton, knob or lever, is attached to the mechanical switch body. When the actuator is pressed or turned, it causes the flat metal plate to make contact and complete the electrical circuit.

The exact working principle of the MPI002/TE/AM/12 pushbutton switch depends on the wiring of the switch. If a maintained contact is used, the switch will stay in the same state until it is manually reset. In this case, when the actuator is pressed, the electrical contact is completed and stays in that state, even if the actuator is released. However, if a momentary contact is used, the switch will stay in the same state until the actuator is pressed, at which point the electrical contact will be completed, and the switch will change state. When the actuator is released, the switch will return to its original state.

MPI002/TE/AM/12 pushbutton switches can be used in a variety of applications, such as controlling machinery, lighting control, HVAC applications and more. For example, in a lighting control system, the switch can be used to control the ON/OFF state of a group of lights. In HVAC applications, the switch can be used to control different settings, such as fan speed and temperature.

In conclusion, the MPI002/TE/AM/12 is a 3-position pushbutton switch with a rugged construction and a maintained or momentary contact type. It offers flexibility in wiring options and is ideal for a variety of applications, such as lighting control, HVAC system control and more.
