Technical Information
Alcoswitch miniature microswitches are offered with many options to suit most typicalapplications.
These switches are available in a current range from 16A to .1A. Additional optionsavailable throughout the different current ratings include:
Pin Plunger
Short, normal and long lever
Short and normal roller
Simulated lever
SPDT, SPNO and SPNC circuitry
Within the 16A range, in addition to two different terminal options, there are three differentactuation force options.
You can count on this offering of switches to be high reliability and low cost to fulfill yourbasic microswitch needs. Of course if you need something custom, we can offer that also.Contact your Tyco Electronics sales engineer for details.

Subminiature Microswitches
Alcoswitch subminiature micro switches are available with many options to fit applicationswith limited space and a 5 Amp or less current draw.
With the options of levers, rollers and simulator, a variety of operating forces, operatingpositions and travel distances are available to fit most applications. In addition to tabs andsolder terminals, this line is available with PC terminals to mount directly to your PC board.
If this offering doesn’t fit your application needs, contact the product information center oryour Tyco sales person to discuss a custom product.
