The MV8142 is a single pole double throw (SPDT) illuminated toggle switch from C&K Components. It is designed for applications in which visual feedback needs to be provided to the system to indicate the status of the switch. The MV8142 is designed to be used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications including lever switches, pushbuttons and rocker switches, as well as industrial control panels and instrumentation systems.

The MV8142 features a bright LED indicator that lights up when the switch is in the ‘On’ position. A unique feature of the MV8142 is that it has a dual illumination option, with one LED indicating when the switch is in the ‘On’ position (red) and the other illuminating when the switch is in the ‘Off’ position (yellow). The MV8142 is also capable of being recessed in a panel, as well as being above or below a printed circuit board.

The working principle of the MV8142 is relatively simple. When the switch is in the ‘Off’ position, the LED indicator is off, but when the switch is moved to the ‘On’ position, the LED indicator turns on. The LED indicator is powered by an internal 9V battery, so the LED is always on when the switch is powered. The LED indicator is also designed to have a low current draw so it does not draw too much power from the battery.

When it comes to selecting a LED indication for discrete applications, the MV8142 provides an excellent option due to its bright LED and dual illumination capabilities. The MV8142 can be used in a variety of industrial and commercial settings, including switch, control panel and instrumentation applications, and provides a bright and easy-to-see indication in a range of environmental conditions.

The MV8142 is especially suitable for uses in applications where tactile feedback is essential, as it is easy to locate and identify the switch in the dark. As well as providing a visual indication, the switch also provides a reliable and accurate manual action, and is also capable of being mounted in a range of positions and configurations.

In addition to its bright LED indicator, the MV8142 also includes a mechanical indica that reveals a white indicator strip when the switch is in the ‘On’ position. This provides a more visible indication of the switch’s status and is particularly useful in situations where a bright LED is not available. This indicator strip is also illuminated when the switch is in the ‘Off’ position (yellow) and provides a more visual indication than just the LED alone.

Overall, the MV8142 is an excellent option for discrete LED indication applications due to its bright indicator, dual illumination abilities, and mechanical indicator strip. Its small size, recessed panel design and low current draw also make it a great choice for applications that require a discrete and reliable indication of switch position.
