C&K Components Spherical Actuator Tactile Switches KSJ Series

The KSJ Series Spherical Actuator Tactile Switches from C&K Components are designed for applications in cranes, off-road vehicles, railway products, factory automation, and automotive systems. These switches feature a spherical actuator that allows for actuation forces off center by ¬±30¬8 from vertical, providing flexibility in installation and operation. The switches are momentary action with a single make contact (SPST, N.O.) configuration and have a minimum operating life of 100,000 operations for axial actuation. Electrical specifications include a maximum power rating of 1 VA, operating voltage range of 20 mV to 32 VDC, and a current range of 1 to 50 mA. The switches have a dielectric strength of ,â 250 Vrms and an insulation resistance of ,â 10^9 ohms. They are sealed to IP60 standards and are RoHS compliant. The operating temperature range is -40¬8C to 85¬8C, making them suitable for various environmental conditions. Mechanical characteristics include a total travel of 1.2 mm and actuation forces available in different options, such as 2 N and 3.3 N. The switches are packaged in boxes of 250 pieces and are compatible with wave soldering processes.
