MICRO SWITCH V7 switch is available as a pin plunger style or with optional integral or auxiliary levers to actuate the switch and offer versatility in the application. The switch requires as little as 0,15 Newtons [approximately ½ ounce] to operate for extremely sensitive applications or an operating force of almost 4 Newtons [14 ounces] where higher forces are required. The V7 switch can reliably control logic level electrical loads from less than 0.1 A to power duty switching up to 25 A. Agency certifications for the MICRO SWITCH™ V7 switches are provided through CSA, ENEC, and UL for global use around the world.

Features:

• Actuation on time
• Reliable performance in harsh conditions
• Long life cycle rating
• Design flexibility
• Cost optimization
• Global acceptance

Potential Applications:

• Vending machine motors: Switch controls motors or solenoids in vending machines for dispensing of product.
• Microwave door interlock: Switch in door interlock of microwave that disconnects power if door opened.
• Oven cleaning latch: Switch in door latch for oven clean operation.
• Pressure switch assembly: Pressure switch senses incoming water pressure for power washer.

What makes our switches better?

• Certified with CSA, ENEC, and UL for global acceptability
• Reliable snap-spring mechanism with more than 60 years of proven service
• Available with pin plungers, integral levers (fitted two positions), or auxiliary levers to meet equipment requirements
• Electrical ratings from 0.1 A up to 25 A for design flexibility in one package size

MICRO SWITCH V15W2 Series basic switches are precision snap-action contact mechanisms enclosed in plastic cases. Switch actuation triggers the mechanical closure of the switch’s contacts. The switches are approved for use in Zone 2 hazardous locations. While a small amount of arcing occurs between the switch contacts during contact closure, the switch is environmentally sealed so that flammable gases cannot enter into the switching cavity. This minimizes the chances of ignition of flammable gases in a hazardous atmosphere.

Features:

• Approved for use in Zone 2 hazardous locations; ATEX and IEC Ex certifications
• IP67 equivalent
• UL, cUL, ENEC, and CQC certifications for ordinary (non-hazardous) locations
• 5 A electrical rating
• Longer service life: over one million mechanical operations
• Quick-connect terminals
• SPDT, SPNO, SPNC
• 100 gf, 200 gf operating forces
• Available with a variety of actuators
• Global package size acceptance
• Gold contacts are also available for controlling logic-level/low-energy circuits

Potential Applications:

• Appliances (especially with new refrigerants)
  
• Valve actuators
  
• Commercial refrigeration
  
• Ice makers
  
• HVAC/R (furnace, refrigeration, ventilation)

What makes our switches better?

• ATEX and IEC Ex approvals
  
• Wide variety of actuators, connections, operating and electrical characteristics
  
• More durable performance within a range of conditions
  
• Operates under many difficult/harsh environmental conditions
