1021 Model 2-Position 15A 20A 30A (On)-Off Momentary Toggle Switch

What is a  Momentary Toggle Switch?

The FILN brand 1021 model is a toggle switch with 2 positions (on/off) and a momentary function. When the toggle is switched to the ON position, the internal metal contact will connect the circuit, and the device will start working. When the toggle is released, the lever will automatically return to the OFF position, which is the momentary function, and the circuit will be disconnected, causing the device to stop working. This type of switch is an (on)-off momentary toggle switch, with maximum allowable currents of 15A, 20A, and 30A. Three types are 15amp toggle switch, 20amp toggle switch and 30 amp toggle switch.

The material composition of the momentary toggle switch

The toggle switch has a mounting hole size of 12mm and uses a threaded fixing method. The internal structure of the switch includes the following components:

Toggle lever: responsible for controlling the switch’s on/off operation. The lever has gears that match gears inside the switch, ensuring reliability and stability.
Screw feet: can be fixed by screws or nuts. This design ensures that the switch is firmly fixed to the device or panel, preventing it from loosening or moving during use.
Switch base: the main body of the switch, including copper electrodes, switch gears, springs, and other components. It is the core component of the entire switch.
Spring: connects the toggle lever to the switch base, ensuring the accuracy and stability of switch operation.
Switch gears: matches the gears of the toggle lever, ensuring reliability and stability of the switch.
Encapsulation shell: encapsulates all components, providing protection and isolation, and giving the switch appearance and identification functions for easy user recognition and operation.
The 1021 model 2 position 15A 20A 30A (on)-off momentary toggle switch is made of high-quality materials, is durable and reliable, and has passed multiple electrical and environmental certifications, such as CE and REACH. It is compact, easy to operate, and highly reliable, and is widely used in circuit control for automobiles, motorcycles, ships, industrial machinery, and household appliances.

Features of the momentary toggle switch

• 2-position momentarytoggle switch, convenient for controlling circuit on/off operations, and saves control switch space.
• Momentaryfunction: briefly connects the circuit when the switch is pressed, and the circuit is immediately disconnected when the switch is released. Suitable for circuit control that requires a brief trigger.
• Wide range of controllable current levels, with 3 toggle switches suitable for controlling 15A, 20A, and 30A circuits.
• Waterproof, dustproof, and high-temperature resistant, suitable for use in various harsh environments.
• Easy to install on the panel, and the fixing nut and washer can make the installation more secure.
• Customize different appearance colors and identification symbols for easy user differentiation and recognition.
• The service life can reach 50,000 times or even longer.

The applicable current of the momentary toggle switch

• The 1021 model dual-position momentary toggle switch has a wide range of controllable current levels and high current carrying capacity, making it suitable for controlling many high-current load circuits. It can control 15A, 20A, and 30A circuits. For example, for a 15A circuit, if the circuit load current is less than or equal to 15A, this switch can be used for control. If the circuit load current is greater than 15A, the 15amp toggle switch can’t control the circuit. Similarly, if it is a 20A toggle switch, the circuit load current can be controlled within the range of 20A. If it is a 30A toggle switch, the circuit load current can be controlled within the range of 30A.Usually, this switch is suitable for low voltage and medium voltage circuit control, such as 12V, 24V, 36V DC circuits, or 110V, 220V AC circuits. However, it should be noted that different circuit loads and working environments have different voltage level requirements for the switch, so it is necessary to choose according to the specific situation when using.

The application scenario of the momentary toggle switch

It is applied to circuit control in fields such as automobiles, industrial machinery, ships, and household appliances. In terms of automotive circuit control, this switch can control the on/off of car lights, windows, air conditioners, mirror heaters, and other electrical equipment.

In terms of industrial machinery control, this switch can control the start/stop of the machine, motor forward/reverse, and electrical heating on/off.

In terms of household appliance control, this switch can control the on/off of electric fans, air purifiers, water heaters, induction cookers, and other electrical  equipment.

The wiring of the momentary toggle switch

Materials needed: power, wires, device, (on)-off momentary toggle switch
The toggle switch has NO1 and NO2 pins.
Wire the positive of the power supply to the NO1 pin.
Wire the positive of the device to the NO2 pin.
Wire the negative of the power to the negative of device.
When the switch is toggled to the ON position, the NO1 and NO2 pins are connected, allowing the current to flow through the device, and the device will start working. When the switch is toggled to the OFF position, the NO1 and NO2 pins are disconnected, and the circuit is interrupted, causing the device to stop working. The wiring method is relatively simple, but it is important to ensure that the wire connections are secure and that the switch is properly fixed to the panel or device to prevent loosening or movement during use.
