What is a microswitch?
Micro switch is a small contact interval and fast moving mechanism, with a specified stroke and a specified force for switching action of the contact mechanism, covered by the shell, its external drive rod of a switch, because the switch contact spacing is relatively small, so the name micro switch, also known as sensitive switch.
Also known as sensitive switch, quick switch. Pressure actuated fast opening and closing. Used for door switches in anti-theft systems.
What are the classifications of switches?
There are many kinds of microswitches, and there are hundreds of internal structures, which are divided into ordinary type, small and ultra-small according to volume; According to the protection performance, there are waterproof, dustproof, explosion-proof type; According to the breaking form, there are single link type, double link type and multiple link type.
There is also a strong disconnect micro switch (when the reed of the switch does not work, external force can also make the switch off); According to the breaking capacity, there are ordinary type, DC type, micro current type, large current type.
where is it used?
Micro switch in the need to frequently change the circuit of the equipment for automatic control and safety protection, widely used in electronic equipment, instrumentation, mining, power systems, household appliances, electrical equipment, and aerospace, aviation, ships, missiles, tanks and other military fields, has been widely used in the above fields, the switch is small, but plays an irreplaceable role.
