Innovations in the Switch Sector: The Latest Developments from Marquardt
Rocker switches are often the unassuming heroes in our electronic devices. But if they don't work properly, the whole system can be thrown out of balance. Marquardt has taken on this challenge and presents the latest developments in the switching sector. In our article, you will also learn how micro signal switches from Marquardt are the perfect solution for demanding electronic applications and what advantages they offer.
Micro signal switches from Marquardt: The perfect solution for demanding electronic applications
Marquardt offers a versatile range of flexible microsignal switches, available in four different variants. The compact 1065 series is particularly distinguished by its noiseless switching system for low-current applications. The 1060 and 1075 switches are the result of continuous development and feature diagnostic capability and center-off function. These switches are used in numerous applications, such as vehicle seats, industrial, HVAC control, horticulture and security.
Thanks to the high flexibility provided by different variants, these micro signal switches offer numerous features. The noiseless switching system with large overtravel is particularly suitable for acoustically sensitive areas. The redundant contact system with double contacting and self-cleaning ensures a high level of safety. In addition, there are different variants for mounting pins, lever shapes and terminals. Customized cable assembly and dust and water protection up to IP 67 round off the range.
The basic 1065 series is available as a closed, open or switchable version. The long overtravel of more than 1.8 mm allows it to be adapted to mechanical tolerances of the periphery. The diagnostic-capable 1060 and 1070 switches feature circuit monitoring that detects short circuits or cable breaks, for example. Thanks to the integrated resistors, space and costs are saved. The increased safety through diagnostics and a cost-saving cable harness round off the range.
The 1075 switch has two make contacts from the center position and three switch positions. The elimination of one switch results in a cost reduction of over 50% and space savings. It is also optionally available with a diagnostic function.
