MICRO-LIMIT SWITCHES

Micro-limit pushbutton switches are used in many applications including microwave ovens, vending machines, copy and fax machines, medical and security equipment, computer peripherals and many others. They are characterized by close tolerance precision switching positions and long service life. APEM micro-limit switches are 100% electronic tested prior to shipment to insure proper operation and conformance with specifications.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS

Free position of the switch actuator when no force is applied.

Back travel The distance between the overtravel and release positions.

Operating position The position of the actuator when the contact snaps.

Total travel The sum of pretravel and overtravel.

Overtravel position The final position of the actuator.

Operating force The force required to cause snap action of contact.

Release position The position of the actuator when the contact snaps back from the operating position to original position.

End operating force The force to be applied to keep the actuator in the allowed final position.

Contact opening gap The distance between the open contact pair.

Pretravel The distance between free and operating positions.

Overtravel The distance the actuator travels after the contact actuates.

Movement differential The distance from the operating to release position of

H the actuator.

Free travel The distance between the release and free positions.

Release force The force applied to the actuator at the moment the contact snaps back from the operating position.

Differential force The difference between the operating force and the release force.

Mechanical life The minimum number of actuations with no load on the switch.

Electrical life The minimum number of actuations at rated voltage, rated current and resistive load at 20°C ambient temperature.
