Product Application Information

SX series microswitches are highly precise and are used for simple on/off applications. In industrial power generation applications these microswitches can be used as fuel level switches for gas and oil. They are also recommended for use as temperature switches and pressure switches in precision switch assemblies. These SX microswitches can also be used for aerospace applications. For example, they can be used to monitor the status of landing gear, and in precision assemblies to monitor whether aircraft doors are locked. They could also be used in commercial cockpits for toggle, joystick or push button assemblies. Other general applications for these microswitches include vending machines, timing devices, appliances, test instruments and communication equipmentEnhanced reliability due to gold bifurcated contacts.
