PS10-100B

Pushbutton switches have long been a staple of industrial and commercial switching and control applications. The PS10-100B series of pushbutton switches are designed to provide reliable and cost effective operation for these kinds of applications. In this article, we\'ll look at the common uses and underlying principles of operation for the PS10-100B Series.

Uses

The PS10-100B Series is designed for applications where a momentary contact is needed. Commonly referred to as a pushbutton switch, this type of switch is operated by depressing a button to make a temporary connection before it is released automatically. This makes the device ideal for start/stop type operations, often used in industrial machinery and other control applications. The PS10-100B Series is specifically designed for high ampacity and long life operation, making it a perfect fit for many applications.

Design

The PS10-100B Series is constructed from high impact and heat resistant thermoplastic materials, making it extremely durable. The operating mechanism is designed around a plunger that is actuated by a spring system. When the button is pushed, the plunger is suddenly depressed, activating the switch contact. This design makes the switch operation simple and reliable.

Operation

The PS10-100B Series operates on a relatively simple principle. When the pushbutton is pressed, the plunger is suddenly moved against a spring, activating the switch contact. When the button is released, the spring pushes the plunger back into its original position, breaking the connection. This makes the device a reliable and cost effective solution for applications where a momentary contact is required.

Conclusion

The PS10-100B Series of pushbutton switches are designed for high ampacity and long life operation. This makes them an ideal choice for applications where a momentary contact is needed. The switch is simple to use and reliable, making it an excellent choice for many industrial and commercial control applications.
