DESCRIPTION

83106029 is a double-break snap-action microswitch featuring a changeover (SPDT) function with quick-connect 6.3x0.8 (W3) terminals, designed for reliable momentary or maintained switching applications. The switch incorporates a flexible leaf snap-action mechanism with a moving blade of beryllium copper and silver alloy contacts, delivering consistent performance across a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Key mechanical characteristics include a maximum operating force of 0.45 N, a differential travel of 3±1 mm, and a maximum rest position of 25.5 mm, with a contact gap of 2x0.4 mm providing double-break protection. Electrically, it is rated for 10 A at 250 V AC nominal and 17.5 A thermal rating, with making and breaking capacities up to 16 A at 250 V AC for resistive loads per IEC/EN 60947-5-1. This microswitch is ideal for industrial control systems, appliances, and safety-critical applications requiring long mechanical life and reliable electrical isolation.
