SC20M1S31 Datasheet/PDFThe SC20M1S31 is a contact category device within the Multipurpose Contacts range. This device is mainly used in applications where a wide range of electrical switching activities need to take place. Some common applications include those used in industrial and electrical circuits, in particular where a high level of electrical current may be present.
This device is highly functional yet relatively simple to use. It is comprised of two main parts: a base and a contact. The base of the device consists of two plates that hold the electrical contact in place. The contact is made of a high quality conductive material, such as copper. This contact is then inserted into the base and secured into place with screws.
The contact works on a single-point contact principle, where the contact is only able to open or close the electrical circuit. This means that when the contact is pressed, it will create a conductive path between the two points of the contact and will close the electrical circuit, allowing electrical current to pass through. When the contact is released, the circuit will open, blocking electrical current from passing through.
The SC20M1S31 also has an additional range of other features as part of its design. For instance, two piezo buzzers are included to provide an audible alarm when the contacts are closed or open. The housing of the device is also designed so that it is resistant to dust, water, and other environmental pollutants, adding to the longevity of the device. The adjustable current ranges of the device also enable it to be used effectively with different electrical currents.
In conclusion the SC20M1S31 is a versatile contact which is suitable for many applications. Its single-point contact principle, along with its high quality conductive material, make it suitable for switching activities associated with a variety of electrical circuits. Furthermore, its additional features, such as its dust and waterproof housing and adjustable current ranges, work together to provide an effective contact device that is suitable for various applications.
