The Miniature Micro Switch is the premier choice for applications requiring the longest possible mechanical reach combined with high-load electrical capacity. Featuring an impressive 52mm stainless steel hinge lever, this switch offers unparalleled mechanical advantage, allowing for reliable triggering with extremely low actuation force.
52mm Extra-Long Lever: The extended actuator provides maximum reach for wide-gap sensing and requires minimal physical force to trigger the internal mechanism.
High Current Handling: Robust electrical design certified for 16A and 8A at 250V AC, making it suitable for high-power industrial and domestic equipment.
Precision Snap-Action: High-quality internal springs ensure an instantaneous contact transition with a crisp tactile click for accurate positioning.
Standard SPDT Logic: 3-terminal configuration (COM, NO, NC) allows for versatile integration into normally open or normally closed circuits.
Durable Grey Housing: Constructed from heat-resistant synthetic material designed to withstand high-duty cycles and mechanical stress.
HVAC & Industrial Fans: Sensing damper positions or airflow triggers where a long-reach arm is necessary.
Large-Scale Automation: Detecting objects on wide conveyor systems or industrial sorting lines.
Garment & Textile Machinery: Providing high-sensitivity thread-break detection or fabric positioning.
Custom Robotics: Serving as a high-leverage bumper or wide-angle limit sensor.
Actuator: 52mm Stainless Steel Hinge Lever.
Current Ratings: 16A / 8A / 0.6A / 0.3A (Voltage dependent).
Voltage Capacity: Supports up to 250V AC and 250V DC.
Terminals: 3-Pin Right-Angle Spade Terminals.
Why use a 52mm lever instead of a standard one?
The 52mm lever provides much higher sensitivity. Because the "arm" is longer, a very small force at the tip creates enough leverage to click the switch, which is perfect for delicate sensing.
Can this switch replace a lower-amp model?
Yes! This switch is rated for up to 16A. It can safely replace 3A, 5A, or 10A switches of the same physical size, offering a higher safety margin for your project.
Is the lever rigid?
The lever is made of high-quality stainless steel. While it is designed to be slightly flexible to prevent snapping under over-travel, it is rigid enough to maintain its straight profile through thousands of cycles.
