Pushbutton Switches

Pushbutton switches are ubiquitous components in all electrical, electronics and electromechanical applications. They are widely used and are typically found in virtually every circuit, from low-technology applications to the highest tech ones. Pushbutton switches are generally composed of a sealed, pushbutton plunger and a momentary contact device that is either triggered by the plunger\'s movement or by the pressure of an actuator (such as a finger, rod or lever). Depending on the design, these switches may act as simple on/off devices, or they may serve more complex functions when wired differently.

UB15NKG01N application field and working principle

The UB15NKG01N is a pushbutton switch used as a key switch in home appliances, office equipment and industrial automation. The switch has three pins, one of which is connected to the external power, the second is connected to a circuit or load, and the third is connected to the contact. When the plunger is pressed, electrical current will flow through the circuit, triggering the switch and the load.

The UB15NKG01N is a single-pole, single-throw (SPST) switch, where the external power is directly connected to the load. In this switch configuration, the contact is connected to the external power through a spring. When the plunger is pressed, the contact is moved away from the external power, creating an open circuit and preventing the current from flowing through the circuit. This switch configuration is known as a NO (normally open) switch.

The UB15NKG01N is also available in a double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) configuration. In this switch configuration, the contact is connected to the external power through two springs. When the plunger is pressed, the contacts are either pushed away or pulled towards the external power, allowing current to flow through one of the two circuits at a time.

The UB15NKG01N features a rated current of 1A and a rated voltage of 250V AC, making it an excellent choice for low-voltage, low-current applications. It is also designed with a white zinc-plated cover to protect the contacts from dust and moisture. The UB15NKG01N is also UL, CSA and CUL certified, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Overall, the UB15NKG01N is an excellent choice for low-voltage, low-current applications, particularly in applications such as home appliances, office equipment and industrial automation. With its rated current of 1A and rated voltage of 250V AC, and its UL, CSA and CUL certifications, this pushbutton switch provides both reliability and peace of mind.
