Pushbutton switches are frequently used in various electronic related applications. These typically consist of two contacts or three contacts, with each contact being capable of either engaging or releasing at the same time. This type of switch is usually operated by one or more actuators, with each actuator operating independently of the rest. Pushbutton switches are available in a variety of configurations, such as momentary, toggle, maintained, spring-loaded, and non-spring-loaded.

The MPI002/TERM/GN pushbutton switches from Schurter are universal 16 A AC/DC rated pushbuttons. They feature UL, cUL, and VDE certifications, with a rated uptime of up to 20,000 cycles or five years. The contact type is momentary type, with the contact normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) when the actuator is not pressed. The terminals for this type of switch are terminal, with the four-hole variety being tin plated M3, and eight-hole varieties are also offered with various adapter and screwdriver options. This type of switch is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and is available in multiple colors.

The working principle of pushbutton switches is fairly simple. When an actuator is pressed, the contacts that are connected to it move through the actuation mechanism, which causes them to engage and open the circuit. This allows the current to flow, enabling the controlled device to perform its designated function. Once the pressure is removed, the spring-loaded contacts will return to their original position, subsequently breaking the circuit and disabling the power supplied to the device.

The application fields for MPI002/TERM/GN pushbutton switches are vast, ranging from industrial to commercial applications. Industrially, these switches are used in the automation and control of industrial machinery and equipment. This is especially beneficial for hazardous or harsh environments, where these switches are capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, dust, humidity, and other types of conditions. Commercially, these switches are also utilized in various electronic devices and appliances. They are often used in electronic gaming consoles, household appliances, emergency alarm systems, and many others.

In summary, the MPI002/TERM/GN pushbutton switches from Schurter are a reliable and durable type of switch that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Their working principle is simple, with the actuators moving the contacts to either engage or release the circuit, allowing power to flow or be disconnected. These switches have multiple application fields, ranging from industrial automation applications to various commercial devices.
