Cam and batch switches ensure the operation of electrical equipment
Cam and snap action switches are essential for the operation of various devices that require switching electrical voltages and changing the operation of devices. The reliability of the operation of household and industrial devices directly depends on the switches that regulate the switching. The VADA online store has a selection of quality devices from reliable manufacturers at affordable prices.
Types of switches: cam and batch
Switches are capable of regulating the operation of electrical appliances and equipment. Cam and package switches are in demand. They differ not only in the principle of operation but also in functionality.
Cam switches
A cam switch is a device that is used to switch control circuits. It is activated by turning the handle. The actuator rotates and activates the cams attached to the device, which close certain contacts. This drives the electrical circuit. To switch off the device, return the handle to its original position.
Cam switches have the following advantages in operation: reliability, durability, and versatility. They are used to control electrical appliances and change the operating modes of technical equipment.
Batch switches
A package switch is a device designed to switch small load currents. Switching on and off from the mains is carried out using a toggle switch, which will help to fix the moving contacts in the desired position. The spring mechanism will be used for this purpose.
This type of device is installed in electrical cabinets as input switches, on switchboard panels. The use of package switches has a number of advantages: reliability of use, protection of the enclosures, ease of installation, and affordability.
Main differences between cam and snap action switches
A cam switch has a mechanism in its design - a cam - that is used to close the desired type of contacts. Package switches have similar tasks, but there are some differences in their design. This is a device that switches the electric current in the network. A manual actuator with a switch has an insulating board on which moving and fixed contacts are fixed to terminals.
How do I choose a cam or snap action switch?
When selecting devices, you need to consider a number of characteristics that affect the operating conditions. Pay attention to the following:
- purpose - to perform household or industrial tasks;
- the specifics of the power supply and the power of the network that the switch must withstand;
- conditions for further operation - additional protection against humidity, dust, etc;
- use of single-position or multi-position options.
Taking these criteria into account, you can choose the right device for your application.
