C&K Components Pushbutton Switches TP11SHCBE

The TP11SHCBE is a subminiature pushbutton switch designed for applications in telecommunications, networking, and instrumentation. It features a single pole, single throw (SPST) configuration with a momentary action. The switch is rated for a maximum contact rating of 0.4 VA at 20 V AC or DC, and 1 amp at 120 V AC or 28 V DC. It has an electrical life of 60,000 make-and-break cycles at full load, ensuring durability in demanding environments. The operating temperature range for the TP11SHCBE is from -30¬?C to 85¬?C, making it suitable for various environmental conditions. The switch has a low contact resistance of below 20 mOc and a high insulation resistance of 10^9 Oc minimum. It is designed with a dielectric strength of 1000 Vrms minimum at sea level, providing reliable performance. The materials used in the construction include glass-filled nylon for the case, thermoplastic polyester for the plunger, and brass for the bushing, ensuring robustness and flame retardancy. The switch is also sealed with epoxy, making it compatible with bottom wash cleaning processes. It is available in bulk packaging and is RoHS compliant, which is important for environmentally conscious designs. Overall, the TP11SHCBE is a reliable choice for engineers looking for a compact and durable pushbutton switch for their projects.
