Pilot light indicator switches offer a simple yet effective way to enhance safety, convenience and energy efficiency in various electrical systems and environments.
Electromechanical switches are typically designed to handle low, medium or high voltages. Let’s explore which switch types cater to higher currents and demanding devices.
In devices where space on the printed circuit board is at a premium, half-pitch DIP switches offer benefits and features that standard-sized DIPs lack.
A Pushbutton switch, also known as a push switch, is a type of mechanical switch used to control the flow of electric current in an electronic circuit.
Many switches come with both latching and momentary options, but the final application in question will determine which type of switch function is best suited to the device.
In the following article, we’ll take a quick look at the different actuator styles commonly found on snap action switches, followed by an overview of E-Switch’s current selection of products.
Normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts are terms used in the context of electrical switches and relays, but what’s the difference between a normally closed vs normally open switch?
The main advantages of DIP switches are their ability to quickly change positions, but what other functions and applications do they provide?
Essentially, the NEC established safety-standards for electrical installations while UL certifies products to meet those standards.
The IP Rating Chart (Ingress Protection), also known as the IP Code, is a standardized system used to classify and rate the degree of protection provided by an electrical enclosure or electronic device against the intrusion of solids and liquids.
With the release of E-Switch’s E100 and E200 emergency stop pushbuttons, we dive into the world of E-Stop functionality and application.
