TL8012-S1024FKM

Snap actions switches are a very popular form of limit switch and are also known as micro switches. TL8012-S1024FKM is a type of snap action limit switch which is used in many industrial and consumer applications. It is a single-pole and double-throw (SPDT) latching contact switch which can be used for controlling the operation of machinery and equipment, providing both motor control and circuit protection. This switch is equipped with a latching metal plunger which requires a minimum operating force, thus providing reliable and accurate operation in both on-off and off-on positions.

The TL8012-S1024FKM has a uniform force, regardless of the size of the actuator, which is also known as "dynamic force". The force is independent of the ambient air temperatures, so the functioning is consistent irrespective of environmental conditions. This switch is primarily designed for use in harsh or hazardous conditions, hence it has a robust construction to assure long term reliability and performance even under extreme environmental conditions.

The working principle of the TL8012-S1024FKM is quite simple. When the plunger is depressed or activated, it applies pressure to the switch actuator and closes the switch contacts, thus turning on the circuit. The switch contacts remain close until the plunger is released and the pressure is removed from the actuator. The TL8012-S1024FKM then returns to its original position and reopens the switch contacts. This type of switch has a high mechanical and electrical life and is extremely reliable even with repeated operations.

The TL8012-S1024FKM can be used in a wide range of industrial and consumer applications, including general-purpose circuit protection, motor control and safety circuits, air conditioners and refrigeration systems, consumer electronics and toys, and office equipment. It is also used in a variety of industrial machinery, factory automation and semiconductor equipment, recreational vehicles, and automatic doors.

The TL8012-S1024FKM is an ideal choice for a variety of applications, as it provides reliable and accurate operation in both on-off and off-on positions. Its robust construction and uniform force make it suitable for use in harsh and hazardous conditions, while its long-term reliability and performance make it perfect for use on long-term and extended applications. This switch is also cost effective and easy to install, making it a popular choice for many applications.
