This microswitch from Honeywell is used to open or close a circuit. It has a snap-action mechanism for a fast response time and is housed in a moulded plastic casing for protection against impact. Its spring-loaded lever detects movement in an assembly device and closes the internal contacts in the unit to provide fast, reliable current switching. The switch is designed for devices with low-level currents and voltage, with a maximum current rating of 16A at 250V AC (alternating current). The terminal's mounting holes accept both pins and screws, making it simple to adapt to your application.

• Compact design allows installation in tight spaces
• Contacts are silver-plated to prevent rust and ensure an effective connection
• Cover pin made from hardwearing brass material for long-lasting use
• Stainless steel plunger for durability and resistance to corrosion in harsh environments

• Fire alarms
• Emergency stop controls
• Door releases
• Timing devices
• Domestic appliances

When pushed down, a plunger-style actuator creates a reciprocating motion that triggers the switch.

This microswitch uses 3.63N of operating force and 1.08N of release force.
