MOMENTARY POWER TOGGLE SWITCH

1. There are three gears, which are “ON-ON”. This means that the switch can be toggled between three positions, and each position is momentary, i.e. the circuit is only energized while the handle is in that position and immediately disconnected when the handle is released.
2. 15AMP toggle switch:It has a rated current of 15 amps, which means the switch can withstand a current load of 15 amps and can control larger power electrical equipment.
3. momentary toggle switch : This switch is momentary, which means that when the handle is in the ON or OFF position, the circuit will not be energized or not energized all the time, but will only be energized when the handle is pressed, and the circuit will be disconnected immediately after the handle is released open.
4. POWER TOGGLE SWITCH: This is a power switch that can control the power switch of electrical equipment. When using this switch, it needs to be wired correctly, and the position of the switch should be selected according to the needs to control the switch of the electrical equipment。

ADVANTAGES

• Simple And Easy To Use: Momentary Power Toggle Switch usually have only one Toggle lever，which is easy to understand and operate.
• Quick Response: Momentary Power Toggle Switch quickly momentary equipment or systems to restore normal operation.
• High Reliability: The Momentary Power Toggle Switch is made of reliable material for durability and stability, it can work for a long time without failure.
• Easy Maintenance: Due to the  toggle-toggledesign, the maintenance and replacement of the momentarytoggle switch is very convenient and simple to operate.
• High Safety: In an emergency, the Momentary Power Toggle Switch can be used to quickly stop the equipment or system to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment.

The structure mainly includes the following parts

1. Toggle Mechanism: The toggle mechanism of this switch consists of a metal rod and a plastic or metal handle. The metal rod is responsible for connecting the internal circuit of the switch, while the handle is used to control the state of the switch. The handle is usually a thumb-sized rectangle or circle that can switch between three positions. When the handle is in the ON or OFF position, the circuit will not be energized or not energized all the time, but will be energized only when the handle is pressed, and the circuit will be disconnected immediately after the handle is released.
2. Enclosure: The enclosure of the switch is usually made of plastic or metal material, which protects the circuitry inside the switch from the external environment. The shape and size of the housing can be designed according to specific application requirements, usually a rectangular or circular shape.
3. Terminal Blocks: The switch’s terminal blocks are usually located on the bottom of the switch and are used to connect the power and load wires. A terminal block is usually a screw head that holds the wires in place with a screwdriver or wrench.
4. Internal Circuit: The internal circuit of the switch usually includes a set of controllable switches to control the connection and disconnection between the source and the load. The design of internal circuits can be optimized according to specific application requirements to achieve better performance and reliability.
5. Toggle Switch Safety Cover: In order to protect the normal operation of the machine and prevent accidental touch, a safety cover can be used on the outside.

Working principle

The working principle of the 3 position momentary toggle switch is that when the switch is pressed or toggled, it can briefly connect or disconnect the circuit and return to the original position after the switch is released. This switch is often referred to as a “momentary” switch because it only takes effect when pressed or toggled, and automatically returns to neutral when released.

It usually has three positions or modes, labeled “Up”, “Middle” and “Down”. When the switch is in the neutral position, the circuit or device connected to the switch is off or neutral. When the switch is toggled to the up or down position, the circuit or device is momentarily activated and automatically returns to the off or neutral state when the switch is released

This type of switch is typically used in applications that require brief activation, such as motor starters, emergency stop buttons, and signal lights. It is also used on some instruments, such as guitars, to activate different pickups or effects.

Application

The 1121 3 Position Momentary Power Toggle Switch with a 15-amp rating can be used in a variety of applications where momentary switching of power is required. Some common applications include:

Automotive: The switch can be used in automotive applications to control the power supply to different components such as lights, wipers, and fans.

Audio Equipment: The switch can be used in audio equipment to control the power supply to amplifiers, mixers, and other components.

Lighting: The switch can be used to control the power supply to lighting fixtures, such as in a stage lighting setup or in architectural lighting applications.

Industrial Control Systems: In industrial control systems, momentarytoggle switches can be used to control the momentary of a machine or process. For example, on an automated production line, if a machine malfunctions or stalls, an operator can press a momentary toggle switch to restart the machine and continue production. The switch can be used in industrial machinery to control power to different components such as motors, pumps and conveyor belts.

Security System: In a security system, itcan be used to momentary an alarm or fault indicator. For example, in a fire alarm system, if the alarm is triggered, firefighters can press the momentary toggle switch to stop the alarm and reset the system.

Traffic Signal Systems: In traffic signal systems,itcan be used to momentary signal lights or controls. For example, after a traffic accident, traffic signal controls may need to be momentary to restore normal traffic flow.

Medical Equipment: In medical equipment, itcan be used to control the reset of the device. For example, in an operating room, if a medical device malfunctions, a doctor can press a momentary toggle switch to restart the device and continue the procedure.

How To Wire A 3 Prong Toggle Switch

Before we start, we should prepare a battery, two LED lights to simulation devices, a 3 prong toggle switch, and several wires.

This type of switch can be used to control devices by toggling a toggle switch. After the switch and the device are connected, the two devices are connected in parallel, and the two do not affect each other. The following is the circuit diagram of the wiring and the display after connection:

First, connect the negative pole of the battery to the common pin of the toggleswitch, connect NO to the LED light 1, connect the other end of the LED light 1 to the positive pole of the battery, connect the NO1 end to the LED light 2, and connect the other end of the LED light 2 to the positive pole of the battery.

When the toggleswitch is turned to close the NO1 end, the LED light 1 (green) at that end is lit, and the device starts to work. When the toggleis released, the switch automatically resets to OFF and the LED light turns off.

When the switch is toggled again, the NO2 terminal is closed, LED light 2 (blue) is lit, device 2 is working, LED light 1 (green) is off, and device 1 stops working. When the hand toggleis released, the switch automatically resets to OFF, and the LED light goes out.
