Industrial Switches & Sensors

Switching & Sensing Solutions for industrial applications

Switches are devices that is used to halt the flow of electricity in a circuit. In layman’s terms, a switch can either make or break an electrical circuit. Every electrical and electronics device employs at least one switch to control the device’s ON and OFF states. As a result, switches are a component of the control system, and control action is impossible without them.

Mechanical switches are divided into various types depending on multiple factors such as actuation technique (manual, limit, and process switches), the tally of connections (single contact and multi-contact switches), number of poles and throws (SPST, DPDT, SPDT, etc.), function and fabrication (push button, toggle, rotary, joystick, etc.), state (momentary and locked switches), and locked switches etc.

Industrial Switches – what to think about when choosing the right Switch for your industry application?

There are a variety of possibilities when it comes to switches, and it is not always the easiest decision to select the switch that has right characteristics for your application. There are some factors that will help you to pick right switch for an industrial application.

1. Meeting Environmental Requirements

What type of environment will your solutions to be used? Industrial solutions often operate in harsh environments and be impacted by water, dirt or shock vibrations. It could also be that that it is a solution for special environments such as food and beverage or medical industry, which means that components for the solutions need to meet high hygiene demands.

We have switches in all industrial standards, up to IP67.

2. Electrical Power Rating

Another important factor to consider when selecting a switch is the desired signal current.

3. Suitable for Purpose

It is important to take into account is how a switch will be used. For example, if operator will have gloves on, we need to take in consideration that rocker switch might be more suitable than a rotary switch for example. Switches comes in various of colors as, for example the most critical switches could have a red cap while others are black so it stands out from the dashboard. Illuminated switches can also make it visually easier to operator see when the switch is turned on.

4. Cost

There is no denying that cost is a factor to evaluate when choosing a switch.

From our wide range of switches can always find a right one to fit your application and budget, while all products have gone through quality controls and are suitable for industrial applications, weather you are looking for a standard switch or more state-of-art solution.
