Selection Standards for Different Types of Micro Switches

2023-10-11


There are several criteria to consider when choosing the right type of micro switch:


Current and voltage requirements: 

  According to the current and voltage requirements in the application scenario, select a micro switch that meets the requirements. Make sure that the selected switch can withstand the required current and voltage to avoid switch failure or damage due to excessive current or voltage. 

Action force and operating force: 

  The action force of a micro switch refers to the force required to perform an action on the switch button, while the operating force refers to the force required to switch from the normal working position to the trigger state. Choosing the action force and operating force that suits the application needs can provide a better user experience. Life and reliability: 

  The life of a micro switch refers to the expected service life of the switch under normal operation. Choosing switches with long service life and reliability can reduce repair and replacement costs and increase equipment reliability. 

Size and installation requirements: 

  Select the appropriate size micro switch based on the application space and layout. At the same time, the installation method and requirements of the switch need to be considered to ensure that it can be installed conveniently and firmly on the equipment. 

Environmental adaptability: 

  Select micro switches with adaptability according to the working environment and conditions of the application scenario. For example, for application scenarios that require special requirements such as high temperature resistance or dustproof and waterproof, you need to choose a switch with corresponding characteristics. 

Price and supplier reliability:

  Consider the price and supplier reliability of micro switches. Choose suppliers with reasonable prices and reliable products and services to ensure product quality and delivery reliability. 

  To sum up, choosing a suitable micro switch requires comprehensive consideration of factors such as current and voltage requirements, operating force and operating force, life and reliability, size and installation requirements, environmental adaptability, as well as price and supplier reliability. Select based on specific application needs and standards to ensure the switch meets application requirements and provides reliable performance.
