Horizontal microswitch - contacts for breadboard and Arduino
This goes with it
Description
Product Overview
- Microswitch with horizontally mounted contacts
- Compatible with the B series
- Wear-resistant contact mechanism for frequent switching
- Supplied unassembled; soldering required
Product Description
This microswitch is suitable wherever compact switching mechanisms need to be integrated into existing systems. The horizontally mounted contact system enables flexible placement on circuit boards and housings without requiring additional adapters.
The switching principle is based on mechanical contact switching. The contact arrangement allows direct mounting on standard circuit boards, enabling rapid prototypes as well as test and development assemblies without modifications.
Typical applications include door switches in housings, limit switches for moving assemblies, switching logic in test setups, and sensors for measuring stations. One specific example is monitoring folding mechanisms, where the switch reliably detects the state.
Since the switch is supplied unassembled, soldering tools and the appropriate skills are required. In addition, the current load must be checked against the permissible contact rating to prevent wear.
Safety Notice
The switch must not be connected to the household mains supply. It is intended exclusively for prototypes and testing and development purposes. A qualified electrician is required for work on or near electrical installations; if there is any uncertainty about the current load or switching capacity, consult a qualified electrician before commissioning.
