Pushbutton Switches

A pushbutton switch or button switch is a switch that consists of a spring loaded plunger enclosed in a metal split-sleeve cover. When the plunger is pushed, the spring-loaded plunger latches in a closed (pushed) position, making an electrical connection. When the plunger is released, it resumes to its original “open” position when released, breaking the electrical connection. Pushbutton switches are available in several different shapes, colors, and sizes. The shape and size of pushbutton switches can range from rectangular, circular, to oval, and even triangular. There are also a variety of colors to choose from, such as black, white, red, green, yellow, and blue. Pushbutton switches are used in a variety of different applications, from industrial, medical, and consumer products.

MPI002/TE/AM/24 Application Field and Working Principle

The MPI002/TE/AM/24 pushbutton switch is a durable, low-voltage switch designed for use in industrial and medical applications. It has a robust housing, a dual-contact configuration, and can be operated with a finger or a tool. It is designed for use in rugged applications and can withstand extreme temperatures and dirt. It is rated to operate up to 250V and rated breakthrough voltage to 4000V. It has a maximum switching current of 2A and a switching temperature of -20°C to +50°C. It is also RoHS compliant, making it suitable for use in many different environments.

The working principle of the MPI002/TE/AM/24 pushbutton switch is simple. When the button is pushed, a spring-loaded plunger latches in a closed position, completing an electrical connection. When the button is released, the plunger releases and resumes its original “open” position when released, breaking the electrical connection. This pushbutton switch is also designed with a dual-contact configuration, allowing multiple points of contact on the switch. This allows for increased current capacity and robust operation.

Pushbutton switches are a common and versatile electrical component, used for controlling and activating electronic circuitry. This type of switch is an essential piece of equipment for many industrial and medical applications. The MPI002/TE/AM/24 pushbutton switch is designed to withstand extreme temperatures, dirt, and rough usage. With the dual-contact configuration, it can handle higher current and is rated to a maximum switching current of 2A. Additionally, it is RoHS compliant and can operate up to 4000V.
