Rocker Switches

A Rocker Switches is an electrical switch used to turn electrical equipment or circuits on or off. It consists of a lever directly connected to an electrical contact mechanism in an enclosed housing. The U11J2AV2QE2 Rocker Switches is a tactile switch composed of a flat rocker arm and a snap-on actuator to control the movement of the switch.

Application Field

U11J2AV2QE2 Rocker Switches are widely used in a variety of applications, including domestic appliances, electronic medical equipment, automotive and industrial electronic controls, and other industrial and consumer products. It is usually used in applications that require a momentary action switch, such as a programmable logic control (PLC) application. Moreover, it is also suitable for applications where accuracy in signaling the switch status is not a major concern.

Working Principle

U11J2AV2QE2 Rocker Switches are operated by pushing the rocker arm in either direction. When pushed in one direction, the switch closes the electrical connection and powers up the electric device; when pushed in the opposite direction, the switch breaks the connection, cutting off power to the device. The rocker arm itself is made of metal and it is rocked by a plunger located on the upper part of the switch. When the rocker arm is rocked, the plunger moves, pushing or pulling the corresponding lever, thus opening or closing the breaker contact. This action causes the two contacts inside the switch body to close or open as required.

U11J2AV2QE2 Rocker Switches are simple to operate and require no maintenance, allowing them to be used in a wide range of applications. The design ensures the switch will withstand frequent use and years of wear, making them a reliable and affordable choice. With a life expectancy of up to one million cycles, they can be used in many applications without concern for its durability.
